    metaphor works very well explaining each individuals privilege.

    Should healthcare be a right or a privilege? Healthcare is a privilege. But what if someone’s views are different? The easiest way to change the mind is to show the facts why one side is right. But in all actuality‚ this will only further strengthen the opposite views. How to changes someone’s views happens in three different ways. First is to build rapport or trust with them.

    In Peggy McIntosh’s article “White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible backpack” we see detailed examples of how white people are extremely privileged in ways that people of other races may never understand. Even though sometimes we do not realize this is happening it has been seen to be true in many things throughout history and in the world today. One of the parts of this article that caught my eye and made me think a bit was the list of 26 white privileges that McIntosh wrote about in her article

I have never felt that I was privileged to be white‚ however‚ I suppose that could be because as McIntosh states “whites are carefully taught not to recognize white privilege” After reading McIntosh’s
