I was listening to the news or something when I heard something called the first ever of such and such a thing. So what if it is the first? Why is firstness important or significant? How does this privilege it? What is the privilege accorded? Does priority privilege something and why? Is this like the firstborn, like primogeniture? Isn’t it an inherent inequality? How can we change this?
What other privileges does the hegemonic ideology award and how may we judge them?
