I have respect for your journey and your willingness to expand your mind. Sadly many people still choose to ignore the realities of the things you’ve mentioned like privilege and gender, and it’s so important to get informed.

I like your point about guilt vs responsibility. If one feels guilty about white privilege, then they’re taking it personally. That’s the wrong approach. ‘It’s not about you.’ It’s about acknowledging that you’re at an advantage that you can’t necessarily help, and using that advantage to help others. Great piece.
