That's a great article! It always surprises me how many people born to privilege -- white, male, and/or rich -- take their birth somehow as a personal accomplishment that they can be proud of. The current occupant of the US Presidency is a prime example He thinks he's smart because he was born lucky.

Also, it strikes me that White Supremicists are counterexamples to their own positions of superiority. The speciousness of their arguments reveals the deficiency of their intellect.

We are indeed all fish swimming in the same water. Some of us were just born luckier than others and need to be aware of that fact and humbled by it.
