Machu Picchu.


So in one of my classes there is a guy who seems to either not understand - or just outright disavows - the notion of white privilege. He is also a straight, white, cisgender, American male in the 21st century. Well the other night before class I heard him in conversation with someone else and he said (and I quote, because I wrote it down): “When I was hiking up Machu Picchu I met a person that I took a class with in Rome.”

And that was when my head exploded.
