another race thread: white privledge

A great example of white privilege is Mortgage discrimination in the 1930's. White America was able to acquire land. Blacks on the other hand couldn't. That right there is already a disadvantage that "ripples" from generation to generation

Post to screen name doe
 
This fool said "I prefer the term, class privilege."

lol@poor black people and poor white people being viewed the same...

the tea party was designed specifically for poor/middle class whites to divide them against the lazy minorities who depend on "socialized healthcare and welfare"  

"keep your government hands off my medicaid"...

Here's the thing though: do lower class white people have their own set of obstacles to overcome? Of course.  Do black people of similar status have those same exact obstacles AND a ton of others that the whites of similar status don't have to deal with as much (if at all)?  Absolutely.  

It would be disingenuous to say that poor whites have it just as hard as poor blacks.

I'm white, if that matters.

Exactly. I think if you read this and still disagree - you're very naive about how the world works.

People see the term "privilege" and automatically assume it means people think everything is 1000% perfect. No. A privilege is a privilege. Being white in America gives you advantages that a minority could never ever have. It doesn't mean every white person is rich.

Bill said his upbringing made him who he is in the present.

Then says he grew up in an area blacks weren't allowed. Then says white priveledge doesn't exit.

He owned himself

Truth. There was a thread on here not to long ago going into extreme detail about this. Gonna do some digging and see if I can find it. Long read but very worth it.
 
Flamesuit on.....

Privledge is real in America but in this day an age....not an excuse.


Its late I got a headache. Nobody owes you anything in this world. Just how I feel. I make ppl look past my color.

He says it is a factor. He said it in the video. 

He also admits that minorities have it rougher than other people in contemporary society. 

I just don't get what you guys want him to say? He knows where his bread is buttered.
