I’m starting to realize that accusations of ‘white privilege’ come from a place of cope and envy. If white privilege exists, have you ever thought that maybe we receive better opportunities because: - we live in harmony - our neighborhoods are peaceful - we resolve conflict through dialogue - our Wendy’s doesn’t have bulletproof glass - we raise our children - we bring value to society’s table You don’t lack ‘white privilege.’ You are just historically loud, dramatic, violent, and an all-around net negative to any workplace or community. Call me racist. Whatever. But you can’t call me a liar.
