No such thing as "White Privilege" just do 3 simple things, and you will have an over 90% chance to be successful in the US. It goes for ALL races and sexes. Those who live in poverty more than likely broke ONE OR MORE of these rules:
1. Get an education
2. Dont have children out of wedlock
3. Have gainful employment
Made up term used to silence any white who has the audacity to call bullshit when being lectured.
Because the truth is, that Asian American households earn far more money than anyone else. The median income for Asians, is close to $69,000 a year; it’s $57,000 for whites, and $33,000 for blacks—so the question becomes, why? And the answer is found in stable homes and in emphasis on education; 88 percent of Asian Americans graduate from high school compared to 86 percent for whites and just 69 percent of blacks.
Like I stated before... THERE IS NO PRIVILEGE! 3 simple things to do to become successful in the US, no matter WHAT YOUR RACE.
1. Get an education
2. Dont have children out of wedlock
3. Have gainful employment
Those that ARENT successful in the US (white, black, asian, indian, martian, etc...) has more than likely broke 1 or more of those rules.
Why is the black community on the bottom of the success list? If you answer these questions, you will see why.
In 1965 What was the black single motherhood rate? Black incarceration rate? Graduation rate? Average income compared to rest of the non-black population?
Now... Answer those same questions, but to the most recent years.
What changed?
(I expect deflection and possible insults, instead of answering the questions, maybe I will somehow become racist?)
After I’m done in here, you guys can start referring to me as Sir. With please and thank yous attached.
Im going to try to be short and sweet but probably not really possible.
Everyone I think will admit that they didn’t choose their life and their race. No one chooses their parents. I don’t know what you racists think but I will assume everyone believes that. So if you are black you didn’t choose to be black. If you are white you didn’t choose to be white. Got that so far?
Okay. Now the privilege part of it....this part of it resonates everywhere. When you walk into a store and you aren’t presumed as a threat to steal anything just because you are white and not colored is white privilege. When you are at home and you have the luxury of turning on your TV and going to every channel there is to see white people portrayed in a positive light, while on your local news they’re showing black people wanted or police looking for minorities to harass. Ever seen “Cops?” Thats white privilege. Walking freely in the United States without having to be held accountable for the same laws everyone else does. That’s white privilege. White privilege exists because of history. White privilege is justness racial bias. That’s all it really is. It isn’t racist until it turns into action. And you charge something against a colored person that you don’t and wouldn’t charge against a white person.
Take a look at NY. Lot of crime. Lot of colored people. And a lot of police corruption.
Y’all know who Ray Tillery was? When he flicked his cigarette onto the street and the police surrounded him and swarmed him and in the video shows about 8 cops slamming him to the ground. All for just doing what millions of people do every day...putting a cigarette out in public. 8 cops tackling this dude to the ground because he flicked a cigarette out. For every 10 people stopped by the NYPD 8 are black or Hispanic. Police have a license to hurt, shoot and kill people and get away with it. Nothing happens to them. Blue wall of violence/silence. NYPD might be the most harsh example there is in the country but it’s in the United States in a monumental city.
You guys must be thinking....”oh there had to be something else he was doing.” Sorry.
And of course your guys favorite....Systematic racism. That’s white privilege.
When your mentality is US vs them and they train not to identify with the people
There is no fucking screening process whatsoever for Racism. Imagine if the police department can hire somebody with a tattoo on his arm of a hanging black person like he’s being lynched. And they still qualify to be a New York City police officer. Has that happened? Yes. So imagine that.
White people don’t get arrested as much. The criminal justice system doesn’t prosecute them as much. It doesn’t charge them the same way that they charge minorities. There’s a total imbalance to the process that people sanction because they turn a blind eye to it. Which leads to a ton of false incarcerations truthfully. Shoddy ass racial profiling police work, they don’t give a fuck about WHO did it. As long as some minority goes down for it who can’t defend it then case closed. And the public knows this. Just say it was a black guy and ID him when they stop some random dude walking down the street and he will go down for it. Happens all the time and the dude pleas for something he didn’t do. Happens many times everyday. That’s how fucked up and corrupt or justice system is. So no I don’t blame minorities for everything like you guys do.
