This whole article is worth reading, but this in particular stands out to me:
Privilege Checking is Classist and Ineffective
I made the strong claim that this kind of thinking encourages class warfare, and indeed it does. Privilege checking creates an environment where the black, female, upper class college student can outrank and silence the white, male, working class college drop out. These policies are being actively encouraged by college campuses. If you re-center the focus on individualism, we can evaluate both equally on their merits and character. The focus on tolerance and judgment of character is a familiar tenet of the civil rights movement, which succeeded in being more progressive-minded without bringing in nebulous terminology and practices.
