No one has been able to quantify white privilege or been able to differentiate it from plain old "rich" privilage. It seems to be an invisible, made up thing.

Well, plenty of black writers have written close to the same thing. It's not like it's completely unwarranted.

I definitely jumped the gun, but reading that is infuriating.

I'd like to hear about how race based "minority" scholarships are earned. Or any affirmative action privilege for that matter.

The sad part is that people like the author in the article actually think they will be able to curry favor with the other races by extolling "white privilege," as though they will be able to stand with them, hand in hand when the day comes that white supremacy ends, and all races (except whites) can rejoice.

The truth is that he will never be viewed as equal by the minorities he attempts to align himself with. They will always view him with disgust and apathy, and they will turn on him the very instant they can no longer use him.

by having an outstanding transcript. Trust me, they don't give those thing to any black person. Bama sure as hell didn't give me one. A few of my friends were on academic scholarships, but they all had 3.75s or better.

So as a white man on the one hand I have to pay for the sins of my ancestors for owning slaves, but on the other hand I can't reap the benefits of my ancestors who passed down my white privilege? Seems like if I'm not allowed to enjoy the privileges passed down from my ancestors then I don't have to answer for their sins either.

He's a member of the United Church of Christ, and his last name is Dorhauer.

I didn't even need to see his photo.
