To pretend privilege doesn't exist is silly. Being born in the U.S. is by definition being born in a position of privilege. Even if you're born in a bad neighborhood from a bad set of parents, still there are more opportunities than someone born in a slum of say ... Somalia. People are not born equal. This is a fact.
