" Far too often, privilege seems to be the result of conquering things, and stealing things, and copying things, and trying to make money out of things, before moving on to the next thing to conquer, steal, copy, and make money out of. . . . It's as if nothing is sacred to us except for money and our own whiteness. We don't care for what we have. We don't use our so-called privilege very responsibly so, more often than not, we don't seem very privileged at all. "
