Here Are 6 Things White People Say That Highlight Their Privilege And OMG I Hear These Allllll The Time
Feminist scholar and anti-racism educator Peggy McIntosh famously described white privilege as an “invisible weightless knapsack of special provisions, maps, passports, codebooks, visas, clothes, tools and blank checks.”
In other words, white people typically move through life unaware of all the head starts, resources and access the color of their skin affords them. They don’t recognize these unearned advantages until they’re pointed out — and even then, some white people will try to deny the existence of their privilege.
It should be noted that merely acknowledging your white privilege isn’t enough — but it is one small and necessary step toward taking action and wielding that privilege to help dismantle the systems that oppress the Black community and other people of color in this country.
We talked to educators, activists, therapists and professors about the things white people often say that highlight their privilege without them realizing it.

Intact families and communities are the only privileges white people enjoy in 2024.
I can name dozens the black community receives and explain how it's actually harming them.
Edit: Also, don't dox 4cubbies

We talked to our kids about racism. They asked us what we were talking about. They're two half black half white boys in a school that is 95% white. It's a non issue for children. Racism only exists in adults who want to perpetuate victim hood.

1) What's a refundable tax credit?
2) How can a group that is only 13% of the population commit over 50% of all violent crimes?
3) Sure, I accept certified mail...why?
4) Getting a voter ID is easy.

Can you imagine the schnozz on that gal. I'll bet her profile is a doozy.
She's a prime example for a collagen lip enhancement as well.
She'll look like Schumer's wife in a few years.
I may have just highlighted my privileges with those observations. Oooops

I don't believe in White Privilege.
But, if it was real, why the hell would I give it up?
Life is cruel and hard. Why willingly give up any advantage you may have in this world?

If you have it it’d be more insulting to not use it right

This is an interesting study in how something going "viral" can really just be multiple websites owned by the same company just copy/pasting the same thing.

Racism is an industry for these clowns.
They seriously don’t understand the bigotry of low expectations.

"Only?" Sorry man I'm going to have to call b******* on that. There are literally people all over the South that think that black people are mentally inferior. There's probably a lot of people in this thread that think that. Just saying.

We call those people, "White liberals".

In general, blacks have lower IQs than whites.
