my gawd the psuedo-statistics that explain the majorities view of black and brown people, super original and nuanced.

How simple he makes sound, you would think black and brown people where mentally inferior not to try it. He does not touch on many things but some off the top are the high unemployment in many minority communities because jobs seem to not exist there for some strange reason, or lack of lending from banks to minorities to build businesses/buy property. Or re-districting certain areas to exclude minorities from much better schooling/voting/city resources. And lets not talk about the crimes and the subsequent sentencing disproportion for certain people in this country, because of of previously mentioned lack of jobs. 

Baby jesus, help these fools find a book or read newspaper.

completely disregards the struggles of every day white people, and makes the horrendously gross assumption that white people cannot be poor. I am comfortable now, but I used to be so poor, I was homeless. But I dragged myself out.

It also flies directly in the face of every other bit of privilege we dosee for minorities. Such as affirmative action, quotas and race laws that are designed to protect them, but not white people. Ever notice if a white guy attacks a black guy, it's a race/hate crime. A black guy attacks a white guy? It's just an attack.

It also has a glaring disrespect to historical fact, and one of the key pieces of ammunition used by people who try to claim white privilege is a thing because of slavery when there are four things to consider;

1 - Slavery was ended hundreds of years ago. By white people.

2 - Only ~1.5% of the population were involved in the slave trade (which makes it utterly ridiculous to expect us to apologise for it).

3 - A lot of the slavers were black, and the slave trade would not have been possible if not for the local tribal leaders and warlords in Africa (who, surprise surprise, were black), offering up people to the Europeans.

4 - White people have also been slaves too. The Barbary Pirates are an example, as are several others where Arabs, not white people, carried out slaving raids throughout the coastal regions of Europe.

And enough of this 'you have to say sorry'. I don't have anything to apologise for.

If white privilege exists it surely hasnt been actively protected, otherwise they'd be at the top of the pay heap
