However, there are often dilemmas that arise from researching privilege. In the following comics, student researcher, Alex Dorion, explores these dilemmas. Students that come into the research often struggle to change their perceptions on their advantages because of the all their prior knowledge. Their baggage must be unpacked in order to transform their understandings. Likewise, after exploring privilege through social justice work, it is easy to push these understandings into different categories and not make connections between their life and what they\u2019re researching. In these comics, try to make your own connections and interpretations allowing yourself to reflect upon your own self-understandings about privilege.<\/span><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module image -->\n<div  class=\"module module-image tb_0g45009    image-top tf_mw\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"image-wrap tf_rel tf_mw\">\n\t\t    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/web.colby.edu\/global-elites\/files\/2015\/11\/baggage1.jpg\" width=\"934\" height=\"1163\" title=\"Researching and Teaching Privilege\" alt=\"Researching and Teaching Privilege\">\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<!-- \/image-wrap -->\n    \n    \t<\/div>\n<!-- \/module image --><!-- module image -->\n<div  class=\"module module-image tb_zx71000    image-top tf_mw\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"image-wrap tf_rel tf_mw\">\n\t\t    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/web.colby.edu\/global-elites\/files\/2015\/11\/usversusthem1.jpg\" width=\"913\" height=\"569\" title=\"Researching and Teaching Privilege\" alt=\"Researching and Teaching Privilege\">\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<!-- \/image-wrap -->\n    \n    \t<\/div>\n<!-- \/module image -->                    <\/div><!-- .tb-column-inner -->\n                            <\/div><!-- .module_column -->\n            \t    <\/div><!-- .row_inner -->\n\t<\/div><!-- .module_row -->\n\t<\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the heart of this project are the researchers\\&#8217; empirical efforts to understand more fully how the workings of privilege are revealed through the practices and meanings behind global citizenship education within elite schooling contexts.
