“"Marginalized others" have access to other ways of knowing, and therefore to deeper, more authentic truths about human reality. They can share that knowledge by speaking about their lived experience while in a safe space. But to provide this kind of safety, members of privileged groups, i.e. white, able-bodied, cis-gendered middle class men, must keep quiet.” MenWayHumansKindRealityAbleSpaceWhiteClassKnowingGroupsShareMiddleQuietSafeMembersSafetyDeeperAccessMiddle ClassPrivilegedMarginalizedSafe Space Author:Christina Hoff Sommers
