So you honestly don't believe that white privilege exists? Remember the recent Starbucks incident where the 2 black men were handcuffed and arrested, now think about the white man that was very consistently asking the cops questions. This is an express example of white privilege as the man had no fear that the cops were going to do anything to him for asking them questions. Yet I can pull up many videos where minorities are treated horrendously for asking very civil questions. Just today I was watching the news about a white male nurse that didn't want to leave the hospital room where his mother was being treated. The hospital called the cops and the male nurse was actually resisting arrest and swinging at the cop, all they did was tazed him. Had that of been a black man he would be dead! |
The counter person at the Starbucks was not white, she was asian, and the men in question weren’t paying customers and got loud. I’m sure two white men in a similar situation would be subject to similar treatment. Your second scenario is too ridiculous to pay mind to so I won’t even bother.
