Wheel of Privilege

Wheel of Privilege is an interactive reflection tool designed to help people explore intersectionality and consider how social power structures shape their experiences. Its central feature is a wheel-based assessment covering 16 categories, including race, gender identity, disability, income, housing, citizenship, language, and religion. Users can select a position on an advantaged, overlooked, or marginalized spectrum for each category, then review a visual summary and score. The tool also provides an accessible form that mirrors the interactive wheel, and users may leave questions unanswered. Selections remain in the user’s browser and are not collected or stored, according to the site.

Beyond the ready-made United States wheel, Wheel of Privilege offers a library of example wheels, guides, and information about using the exercise. Users can customize a wheel by choosing categories, adjusting wording and scoring, and adding credit and a description. Options include importing or starting a wheel from scratch, sharing or downloading it, submitting it to the community, and using it in a workshop.
