I am black, but not American.
Who is to say I don't hold a right to things? lol.. what makes you God and jury? my morals are that i can receive/attain anything i please. if you presume that some hold privelege, prove it. The nobles in medieval times had rights commoners did not, yet this was societally-based and not a grand absolute. we live in supposed egalitarian societies today, so it's not an absolute by definition. the central point is that whilst egalitarianism holds no absolute base, neither does privelege. i'm sure i am a better reasoner and am physically stronger than others my age. does this grant me privelege? some may say they earn more money than me. others may say they are better looking than them.
tl;dr. if i choose to presume all hold freedom, it's not your place to say otherwise.
