White privilege is nothing but a meme by Black Nationalist to encourage self-loathing among whites. The hope is that they can find enough ignorant whites to go along with it and step aside so they can assume power.
If all the white people would cooperate and step aside it would change to shades of brown privilege with the same desired result. An attempt by the 17 % to control the 83 %.

I don't know where the idea came from but likely it has some ethnic studies origin from a prison.
Its an attempt to control an opponent is some secrete verbal jujitsu move.

The best defense is to counter with the Flying Spaghetti Monster maneuver. It has never been defeated either. Or one could use the simple truth too.

I just started reading this book. The short version is that racial segregation by community is historically based in explicit racial policy rather than in private prejudices. So far, the author is making a compelling case, with interesting and potential far-reaching judicial implications.

It would be good reading for people who don't insist on jamming their fingers in their ears and chanting 'nanananananana'.

So your not going to actually respond to the video which is actually talking about Housing discrimination, at least in the first couple of minutes in the video.

your argument seems to be with the phrase white privilege rather than the context of what the phrase represents.

Would it be better to call it " the effects of government sanctioned racism and discrimination on people of color" so that you can stop trying to deflect ???????

I don't question the existence of white privilege.

Whites created most of civilization, so of course they are privileged.

They should be.

So you support racism and discrimination or did you just not know what white privilege was ???

Late at night.
You are in a dark alley walking home after a party.
Suddenly
1. you see 3 black guys walking after you.
2. You see 3 asian guys walking after you.

In which case would you be less worried? Be honest please. If not here, at least for yourself.

Unlike you (im guessing), I grew up in a black area(i am also black myself), walking anywhere with 3 black people behind you isnt a big deal to me. Your life experiences may be different.

That being said, white privilege has nothing to do with that, at least not in the context of the video the OP posted.

if you want to talk about the broader issue of "what is racism/racial" thats fine, but that isnt what we are talking about here in this thread, and that is why I asked for a clarification from the last part.

Surly if you watched the video, I doubt you would say " im ok with people not giving loans to black people"

What if a black president had killed 4,500 soldiers searching for wmds?
What if a black president had said he only respects soldiers who weren`t captured?
What if a black president mocked a handicapped man?
What if a black president bragged about grabbing?
White privilege? You bet.

Funny. "White Privilege" is a contrived malady with no curable outcome. This was intentional.

Like other issues from Race, Inc., its a gift that keeps on giving!

Only one problem; the "priveleged" far outnumber the non-priveleged.
