From the rear cover
"Praise for Previous Editions: "
This is a superb collection of work at the vanguard of a resurgent interest in how privilege works across a wide range of human experience. Kimmel and Ferber have skillfully knit together a coherent picture of otherwise unexamined and under-theorized connections in a dauntingly vast and fragmented literature. Troy Duster, New York University This excellent anthology forcefully illustrates how bigotry based on ethnic, racial, gender, and sexual stereotyping confines and blights the lives of those deemed inferior. I d like to see this book assigned in every high school and college campus in the country. Martin Duberman, CUNY
Privilege is about more than being white, wealthy, and maleas Michael Kimmel, Abby Ferber, and a range of contributors make clear in this timely anthology. In an era when diversity is too often shorthand for of color and/or female, the personal and analytical essays in this collection explore the multifaceted nature of social location and consider how gender, class, race, sexual orientation, (dis)ability, and religion interact to create nuanced layers of privilege and oppression. The individual essaystaken togetherguide students to a deep understanding of the dynamics of diversity and stratification, advantage, and power. The fourth edition features thirteen new essays that help students understand the intersectional nature of privilege and oppression and has new introductory essays to contextualize the readings. These enhancements, plus the updated pedagogical features of discussion questions and activities at the end of each section, encourage students to examine their own beliefs, practices, and social location.
