HuGeo Q2. 5.0. Extra credit study of saying

Baseball metaphor:

I know I know, sorry, but, it's good. Stay with me here.

On the next slide, you will see the player "hit a triple". Look at his effort.

The announcers say: ... "it's a rare triple."

Under the big arrow, click the "play on youtube" icon.

Multiple Select

Born on 3rd base, thinks he hit a triple.

How does this metaphor work?

It is an insult to those who are rich and privileged by accident of birth.

They do have to make it to home plate, but they did NOT NEED TO MAKE AN EFFORT to get to 3rd base.

If you just start the game at third base, you did not get there yourself. Your family and its money and power got you there.

Someone who is born rich and buys their way to famous universities is essentially born on third base.

The sad part is those born on third often resent the idea that they didn't make their own success.

Multiple Select

Born on 3rd base, thinks he hit a triple, examples.

Who deserves equality?

Niger and Czech Republic

Talking inequality? Were people in Niger born on 3rd base?
