Do u believe that White privilege actually exists ? 馃挕

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.

I believe that people react differently based on their race or culture and that may bring them into conflict with other people. Then neither side looks inward, both expect more and worse next time, and unfortunately more and worse is what seems to happen.

@meJess Fair point. But sticking your head in the sand changes nothing. 馃槉

@Zonuss Exactly, each side has to look inward and consider how their behaviour is interpreted by others, but it seems that they are encouraged to do the opposite and expect the other side to conform to them

@meJess Its not about conforming. Its about accepting reality. 馃槉
