I believe that we do have a sort of
responsibility to give up these born with privileges that put a sort of barrier
between different heritages in our American society. America is suppose to be
the melting pot of the world, we are suppose to be the place where no matter
what color your skin is or what your culture is you will never be judged or
looked down upon. That is very clearly not the case right now and I do believe
that because of this a change is needed. We need to become equal as America
projects itself to be.
Being born
with these magical rights affects us day to day purely by what race and what
living situation we are born into. Intersectional identity affects us because
it will affect everything in our lives from the point of birth whether we are
born white or black makes all the difference. If we toke away this power and
made everything the same it would completely shift the United States in every
way, for the best.
