I play nicer golf courses.

I notice money from my employer deposited into my bank account twice a month.

Apparently I’m allowed to invest that money and plan for retirement too.

If I’m pulled over, the cops realize I’m white once they get up to my truck and I’m immediately allowed to go on my way.

Wait...those were real people? I thought they were those little statues that folks used to put in their yards with the little black boy and his fishing pole!

When I can attend the upcoming Black Rodeo at Lamar Dixon without causing a commotion or calling for a boycott. Try hosting and advertising a "White Rodeo" or "White anything" and watch the degree of Black privilege.

I don't get the responses in this thread. They are all reverse hyperbole either for or against black people's priveleges.

People see me and they cross the street just so they can walk next to me.

I was able to walk off of the stage when I graduated. I wasn't shoved off.

White privilege doesn't exist.... it's a delusion created by those who rather blame social and cultural failures of one race on another, than take responsibility and fix the problems.
I don't believe ALL participate in this, but the ones that do stir up enough trouble for all. The liberal media hungry for ratings only feed the delusion.

Did you act like an a-hole on stage and do anything you'd been specifically asked not to do? Just curious....
