The inherent value someone puts onto you based on superficial features. Often based on race, sex, sexuality, identity, religion, class, and physical ability.
Often times privilege is hard to see when looking at the privileged person. Its only obvious when comparing two people who are very similar other then the superficial features that grant you privilege.
Its worth noting that aspects that often influence privilege can affect things such as getting a job and not be an example of privilege, but rather qualification -ex: physical ability in a job requiring large amounts of movement
Class and privilege are not the same thing. Both can effect each other, with privilege or lack there of affecting your ability to make money, and your class influencing how people see you, but they are not the same.
A person will never be less then their perceived inherent value (privilege), meaning someone without that privilege is seen as inherently lesser.
Ex: "Tod would never do that, he's a christian!"

The idea that people who are alive have more legal rights and protections and are often valued more socially by mainstream society and the government compared to people who are deceased.
People need to be more mindful of about the Privilege of the Living. Just because someone has died does not mean that they no longer have any value.

When a graduate of the Syracuse University S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications lacking knowledge of sports, passion, talent, energy, or a sense of humor gets a job in sports media due to cronyism, nepotism, or laziness of media executives.
Can you believe how bad the “Orange Privilege” stiffs hapless WFAN has on the air are? These guys couldn’t get jobs in Toledo or Wichita and they get hired in NYC thanks to O.P.!
