I am the one being prejudiced against because I have white privilege. My life is over.

The only time I can think of where there was a situation that might be considered privilege, is this: My parents had a lawnmower, and a few of our neighbors had the money to pay me $3.00 to $5.00 to mow their yard. A kid of any color living in the projects, probably didn't have a lawnmower or neighbors with the money to pay them to mow their yard. I mowed yards and hand stuffed inserts into newspapers in elementary school and junior high. In high school, I pumped gas, fixed car, truck and tractor flats, did oil changes, transmission fluid changes, etc at a full service gas station our next door neighbor owned. In college I did construction, worked as a welder's helper, cleared a snake infested lake of trees, hauled hay with a friend that owned a truck. I clearly believe I had an advantage in finding employment when I was growing up. My neighbors, people we went to church with, etc. knew and trusted me to work for them. I get that, but don't understand what I'm supposed to do now. I've been paying taxes that have been used to help underprivileged people, business owners and politicians for 44 years. What else am I supposed to do?
