Well I can only say that AT LEAST he or one of his underlings didn't make up a staged racist hate vandalism attack to "Get people talking"

So there's that...

If anyone is privileged it's the black man and woman today.

And LeBron completely got away with it. A few journalist who knew this didn’t pass the sniff test began to question it and we’re completely shut down and shattered as racist

True. White people make a good bit of his sales I bet, but those white people probably agree with him and despise themselves for being white.

What is it with this generation and always wanting to "talk" about shite?

That's why nothing ever gets done. They consider it a moral victory just to talk. No one ever actually takes any action or provides any solution to the problem they are complaining about.

If all you are doing to bringing up problems and not providing a solution, you're whining.

Please J, you told me twenty years ago you could spend my whole life in a day.
He's been privileged longer than I was an adult. Lol

It could possibly education, IQ, parental care, family tree...etc., but it’s probably something more sinister.

Says the man who has gotten rich while causing the decline of his own race. Hey Jay Z or whatever your real name is, go suck a dick.

It is time to talk about white privilege, indeed.

Right now it is just a conceptual term used as a weapon to intentionally stifle discussion.

Let’s talk about it, Jay-Z.

yeah, kinda seems like constantly talking about this problem has exacerbated it in the minds of certain youths

Since I am white and have never met Jay Z, then I do consider myself privileged.

As a white guy, I think we need to have a discussion about how a black rapper with the nose as wide as my fist is privileged enough to marry Beyoncé.

Only people I know who listen to Jay Z are white people.

Also, white men are privileged because white men keep getting elected to positions of power. If you want black representation, put forth black leaders. Certainly Obama is not the only black man capable of holding a higher office. I understand the issue, but fixing it starts at home. Stop talking, start doing.
