re: White Privilege Is a Thing. Here’s How It Works.

If I was Asian instead of White, and I did everything the exact same... meaning made the same grades at the same schools and had parents who did everything the same, etc..... would my life be any different?

Would I be worse off simply because I was Asian instead of White? I can’t imagine that being the case.

I think a much better and telling experiment would be to think about if an African American was born a black man in let's say Australia or better yet Russia. How good of a life would he have. I'll answer it for you, a longer but shitty one. The only reason they'd live longer is bc they themselves negatively affect the average lifespan of African american men in this country.
