Presents
Peggy McIntosh on Understanding Privilege



Peggy McIntosh is an American feminist and anti-racist activist, a
speaker and the founder and co-director of the National S.E.E.D.
Project on Inclusive Curriculum (Seeking Educational Equity and
Diversity). McIntosh is most famous for authoring "White Privilege and
Male Privilege" This analysis and its shorter form, "White Privilege:
Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack," "have been instrumental in putting
the dimension of privilege into discussions of gender, race and
sexuality." Dr. McIntosh has taught English, American Studies, and
Women's Studies at the Brearley School, Harvard University, Trinity
College (Washington, D.C.), Durham University (England) and Wellesley
College.
