White people, unburdened by racism, sleep pretty damn well.

According to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 65 percent of Americans polled said they usually get at least seven hours of sleep per night, the benchmark recommendation


quote:

When the responses were broken down by race, they found that non-Hispanic whites had the highest rate of healthy sleep duration, at 66.8 percent. Close to 66 percent of Hispanics got seven-plus hours, as did 62.5 percent of Asians and 59.6 percent of Native Americans. Black people were at 54.2 percent, and multiracial people were at the bottom, with 53.6 percent. Overall, people who were employed and college-educated slept better, too.

White people need to sleep less, because there's no way the others will sleep more.

Maybe the different races within are oppressing/being oppressed causing a lack of sleep?

Pardon me while my entitled arse nods off.

It isn't hard to sleep knowing that I'm a legal, taxes paying, positive contributor to society

Is that why black people sleep all day, because they have to double up because of poor sleep from racism. Damn I need to check my privilege.

When you work a 60-70hr week, you sleep pretty damn hard.

It's hours per night.

It ignores the hours slept during the day, on siesta or in between menacing walks around the neighborhood

I am white, 6 figure household and I am lucky if I get 5.5-6 hours a night. I must have some guilt about working for everything I have and being white that is keeping me up at night.

I sleep about 5-6 hours a night. I've spent years trying to fix it.

It's not sugar, alcohol, lack of exercise, or calorie intake.
