Do u believe that White privilege actually exists ? 💡

For example. If an officer stops a person of color they are 3 times more likely to be harassed or shot by a cop. Or discriminated against. Or charged and given a higher life sentence for the same offense. You've seen how race has become an issue over the past few years especially in the US. Do you believe that white privilege exists.

Are you saying my accomplishments are not genuine because my skin color is white?

@MarkPaul Are you saying that I am treated as equally as you are 100 percent of the time? 😊
@MarkPaul

I think he's saying that a black man who has the same credentials that you do is far more likely to be passed over or to receive police attention. Why are the privileged always so defensive about their privilege?
Are you one of those people who genuinely believe that they are not privileged?

@Zonuss No, I'm not.

@Pikachu I think I have privileges, but I don't think anyone handed me anything or that I haven't earned my way (with the help of others).

@MarkPaul Nobody here is blaming you for being a success. ☺
