I think about the privilege I have every day. Even though I am a minority, I fit today’s beauty standards, I am financially well off, I have never had or needed a job before, I get an allowance, and I have a body that gets me everywhere with ease. I become aware of this privilege every day and everywhere I go because I always realize how much easier I have it then others. After watching the documentary Aftershock, I became even more aware of this to the point where I was telling the people around me about this documentary and what I was shocked to learn. Even though I am a minority as well, I am treated differently because I am not specifically black. When watching this documentary, I realized that there are many black women who feel worry and fear when they realize they are pregnant. Not because of having to provide for a baby or a having a changed lifestyle, but a fear for putting their lives in the hands of people who do not care for them. This is a feeling I can only imagine, as there is a high chance that I may never experience the same fear as a black women when she gets pulled over by the police, or when she finds out she is pregnant. When I advocate for myself, I am more than likely be heard than a black woman. And this is a sad fact about the job fields that are meant to help everyone indiscriminately. Because I have grown up privilege, I want to continue learning, sympathizing, and empathizing with others so that I can treat others with the kindness and respect that any other person deserves.
