Oddly enough, by acknowledging white privilege, I am suggesting that I, indeed, am higher up on the totem pole of life than blacks. I thought this is what we wanted to avoid. Are people with white privilege supposed to be chomping at the bits to relinquish it? This world has constantly had people fighting for some supremacy, whether it is political, religious, militaristic, etc. Now we are being told that posturing is wrong?
My privilege acknowledgement doesn't make the inner-cities safer. It doesn't create better schools in poverty stricken areas. It also doesn't make the family life better when daddy gets busted for selling drugs.

You uncovered what's called the rub. Its like when some claim that voter ID laws are racist because minorities aren't as capable as whites to go out and get a freakin ID. I mean how completely racist is that broad assumption about minorities. Blacks should be pissed off at that assessment of them.
