Privilege Walk

The Privilege Walk is an activity that illustrates how different social advantages or disadvantages—such as race, gender, economic status, or education—can affect a person's life opportunities. Participants start with an imaginary baseline, and as prompted, they take steps forward or backward based on specific life experiences or social factors. This visual movement highlights disparities and prompts reflection on how various privileges or obstacles shape individual realities, fostering understanding of social inequality in a tangible, respectful way.
