In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

I'm a minority and I've never felt that other people are worth more, or more important or whatever. Where do they get those ideas from? True, maybe initially people could have stereotypes about me, but I have stereotypes about them too

I think one important aspect of privilege that gets overlooked is the fact that almost no one asks for it or seeks to abuse it. Too often lately the word gets thrown around as if it's cause for guilt. The fact of privilege should never be used to dismiss a person's perspective ("check your privilege") or shame them into silence. We do all need to be aware of the socioeconomic advantages we were born into. Without that awareness, we lack perspective on our own achievements.

This is significantly more nuanced than this discussion often is. I'm happy about that. I do think that this argument would be better if they are open and address those underlying presuppositions prior to their argument. I think we should start with saying wether or not "equality" is a desirable outcome.

Thank you for opening up this difficult conversation. The fact that some folks commenting are squirming goes to show that we need to address these issues ;).

Great message !! Work with what you have and build off of that. In this day and age itās impossible not to find some sort of privilege you do have and work it

Thank you for your encouraging words your video has inspired me to recognize the gift or privilege that I was born with. Sometimes life and life experiences take away the ability to see what is right before us and thank God for people like you that don't mind sharing your life experience to help us get on track. Thank you so much!!!!! Please keep sharing!!!!

I am a member of the faculty who just finished reading your book as our summer reading assignment. I had read portions of it before after hearing your husband speak at a VDN workshop a few years ago. I believe you are coming to our school next week to run our training on social justice and equity, and I just want to say I hope you ARE COMING. I really hope you BOTH are coming (you and Matthew) because I believe you could make a real and significant impact on our faculty and on our community. I very much look forward to meeting you if indeed you ARE coming in the flesh.
:-) And if you are not coming this time, I look forward to continuing to learn from you and from the work you and your husband are doing.

I needed to see this today. Thank you! You are truly an AMAZING woman!

Thank you Tiffany Jana for being a leader. You inspire me as a mixed woman of Mexican, African american descent, and native Indian. It's always beautiful to see our culture continue even through the harsh realities of the world we live in today. But it is a belief system and that is why even through my 24 years of age I have learned to channel my energy for positive and not negative. Thank you again for this video. I will see you soon. <3

Ms. Jana cites a āfamous Yale studyā showing that two fictitious resumes identical except for the gender of the person described were sent to āscience professors across the countryā and resulted in āmore job opportunitiesā and āhigher starting salariesā for the made-up male candidate. Even allowing for the fact that this is only a brief summary of the results of the study it canāt be entirely accurate. Nobody gets offered a job on a university faculty solely on the basis of a resume. The job candidate has to come to campus for an interview and present some of their research. If the person in the resume were fictitious that would soon be discovered. Iād believe that the supposed male candidate got more invitations to come and interview but not more job offers.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey. This speech was very well done. It included that privilege does make you feel uncomfortable, but you need to acknowledge it. Then goes on with what you do with it after. I especially love her real introduction, it makes me feel better that I am not the only one and it will pass.
Again. Thank you for your sharing your unique perspective on privilege is was so enlightened.

āNon of us created this mess, but we are stuck with it though.ā So true. How do we fix it? How can we, when one group (the oppressed) wants to address it while the other group (the oppressor) is on the defensive, does not want to admit the obvious, and therefore cannot participate in a productive conversation about it because they feel āuncomfortableā with the obvious? The oppressed/descendants of the oppressed want to move on, but the oppressor/descendants of are so focused on their denial that they keep stopping progress... Great speech. I have a new perspective on what privilege is. There are different kinds: skin color, education, gender... the point is embrace your privilege

Inspiring! You are right we all need to be uncomfortable once in a while, that's the only way we will all move forward to a better future.

I am somewhat perplexed at people who are trying to tell others not to focus on their lack of privilege caused by a certain variable (race, gender, class, religion etc.) while commenting on the privilegies they don't have because of those same apparent variables. It's sad because there are still so many people who can't see their own faults but readily find them in others. The judgment of others comes from a denial in ones own characteristics. Love is the way. Love for self and love for other. No one is trying to compete or take things away from others. They only want what we have so things can be fair. I'm not even sure why that's a bad thing? You think by having a level playing field you lose your advantage? What is an advantage at the expense of someone who feels just like you do? Experiences being human, just like everyone else does. I really wish you all the courage and strength to let go of fear, anger and pride and find true love within yourself.
