And perhaps that's because, despite being poor, you WEREN'T being oppressed by the man. Black people were. Their advancement was being actively prevented by a violent government and society. That's the thing about privilege - when it's the very air your breathe, it's almost impossible for you to notice it as privilege.


You're either a very bitter black person, or a person with a case of white guilt that borders on the pathological. There is no third choice.

No, the third choice is "objective student of history". It speaks volumes that white people on this board can't simply admit that their white parents and grandparents had a big leg up on black folks of the same generation...and that that leg up consisted of state and citizen violence against black people and their advancement. Seriously, this is settled history. Why are you in denial?
