What Anonymous Privilege Is (and Why You Should Know)

When I was in prison, being gay (and HIV+) was at first a huge disadvantage. As a member of the Whites, I supposedly had the protection of my fellow peach-colored from the Blacks and Latins, but I didn’t need it. Unless you did something aggressively stupid, someone from another race wouldn’t touch you for fear of starting a riot. (If need be, you would be disciplined by your own.)
