Because Afro-American, Asian-American and Native-American don't like to be called black, yellow, red... while white american don't fuck care to be called white or caucassian, so they just use American. You are barking at the wrong three.

I'm Brazilian... white skinned... I have 3/4 black african blood, 1/4 italian immigrant blood (know relatives). Should I call myself Afro-Euro-Brazilian? Nope I'm Brazilian, but black people don't want anyone to say they are brazilian or have dark skin they want to be called Afro-Brazilian.

Yet in places like the UK you don't see any of that, only people I've seen here say they're African are actual Africans themselves for example so I don't fully buy what you're saying, here if they're British they just say British. It's also tree not three btw.

And do UK calling themselves UK no matter the color have to do with US and Brazil people wanting to label themselves Afro or Asian plus USA or BR?

And about profilling. Why would anyone be surprised or offended to be profilled if Police act on statistics and people in generalization? If in a population 90% of the crimes are commited by green colored individuals, 9% by blue colored and only 1% by violet colored people. Should we expect police to look at all of them in the same way? And other people that don't know them? Considering someone inferior because of race is wrong, but profilling based on statistic is a little different. And to add several times the profilled person also wear clothes and have gestures, demeanors and other things related to gangs and songs that talk about violence and cop hating. So who anyone seriously think it's reasonable to expect the police to give the same potential for crime to a thug style cloth and skin color related to most violent crimes and a well dressed and groomed person with skin color rarely showing commiting violent crime? Would we consider Asian Privilegies that asiatics are looked as more dedicated to studying when they in fact are?

The majority of mass shootings in the US are done by white men ... do they get profiled more because of it? Majority of serial killers are also white males, ditto for pedophiles. I don't know of any profiling done there. 

Majority of mass shooting happen on gun free zone and have detectors, what other profilling would you expect? Yes you do know, when they are looking for possible candidates to suspect you will go for the demography that have more convicteds. They use database, but since serial killer and paedophilles don't go around always loaded with guns or other materials that could get them to jail I don't know how profiling would help.

Where did anyone say they had it easy and Where are you responding to my point?

The Jewish enslavement in Egypt  pre-dates the bible. Why are we comparing that to slavery which is recent enough for children of actual slaves to still be alive today in America? It makes no sense, which is why context is key.

Equally you can't just compare different 2 atrocities and treat them as the same. A key component of recent African American history was the removal of literacy in the last 2 century's. A means of the community to nurture itself and grow. In the west the community has never had strong pockets of wealth, power and influence like the Jewish. The community also never recieved reperations, whereas the jewish did. You're comparing apples and pears.

And you choose to ignore the persecution/prejudice against jew in Europe from before 1500 going all the way up to 2 WW?

How did Europeans removed literacy of the Slaves if their tribes were iliterate to begin with? And during slavery most of white people were iliterate as well.

Reparation of jewish for being exterminated I'm mostly sure didn't even equate to how much of their possessions were robbed from them on the nazi germany, but certainly no one looked for reparation for all the rest prior to that, and was done to the people that were directly abused not to all jews alive. How do you want to calculate a debt from someone who didn't commit a crime to someone that didn't suffer that crime on an expectation of what may have happened 150 years before and not even involve both? In Brazil it's show that something between 90-98% of population have black/african heritage, how do you want to calculate the debt? By looking at how dark a skin is?

How does their race tell you anything about their individual circumstance? You keep making this distinction between individuals and collectives, yet you just contradicted it here by saying their race informs you of their circumstance and is something to be considered. 

Dude you're literally telling me that I have to treat people different based on their race. Not once when I interact with people do I remind myself "ok, I'm speaking to an African American male right now" and you know what, I shouldn't ever have to think about that. Part of not being a racist is not considering someone's race when you're talking to them. Treating them as an equal, not as someone who is disadvantaged or in some way handicapped. I would hate it if somebody thought they had to talk to me differently because I'm white. Those are the kind of people I'd like to stay away from. I want to be around people who treat me as an equal and don't consider my race or gender, and youre taking it upon yourself to make a declaration for the entire black community.

What if black people dont want people to keep in mind that they're black and that they have this different experience that they cannot understand? Sure im sure that there are some black people who would love it if every white person they encountered would think this way, but I bet that most of them do not. I bet most of them do not want the people they are talking with to consider their race as some sort of significant factor in how they interact with them. I believe my fellow humans want to be treated and seen as equals.

Let me put it another way.

Would you be ok being born black?  Or any minority?  Or a woman?  Would you be OK dealing with the extra crap they have to deal with in life?  Now if you were, how would you want people to address you and your circumstances?  Would you want them to ignore your history, your culture, your differences?  I can assure you that people do not like to have that ignored.  Does that mean your interaction between people of different races and cultures will be drastically different?  Probably not.  But there should be some subtle differences but that goes the case with all interactions anyway...even if you're not consciously aware of it.

Yes I would. I'm white skinned while my brother would be considered black. We both were born from like 6/8 of our ancestors being slaves 4 generations ago (more or less) with the other 2/8 being from Italian that were in slavelike conditions when immigrated to brazil and my wife is japanese decendent. Family history show that as soon as one in each branch decided studying were important the next generation were improving leaps and bounds.

People ignore all my history, culture and differences to say I'm privileged, why should I consider any individual to have a more meaningless heritage or relevance than myself to say they deserve special threatment? The only people I care about their experience or would think should care about mine are people that I have close connections to.

All the other I would say is indiferent, if I don't have their history I can only evaluate by what he represent.

So am I the privileged one because my skin is lighter than my brother or sister?

Wyrdness said:
On the whole privilege thing if it didn't exist can someone explain why white Americans are simply called American while other ethnic groups are called Afro-American, Asian-American and so on?

I kind of agree with Spoken Truth, tbh.

Because Afro-American, Asian-American and Native-American don't like to be called black, yellow, red... while white american don't fuck care to be called white or caucassian, so they just use American. You are barking at the wrong three.

I'm Brazilian... white skinned... I have 3/4 black african blood, 1/4 italian immigrant blood (know relatives). Should I call myself Afro-Euro-Brazilian? Nope I'm Brazilian, but black people don't want anyone to say they are brazilian or have dark skin they want to be called Afro-Brazilian.

If you have 3/4 black africian blood ... you're "black" to the average white person. In the US anyway. 

Yes, and people would still say I have white privileges because I'm light skinned (unless compared to maybe a sweeden or german, then I would probably called latino). My experience in New Orleans and some other cities was that USA have less miscigenation than Brazil. While I found a very big amount of black people dark skinned and some white man I haven't saw many people in between... In Brazil you'll have almost no really really white and very little really dark, most will fit in a plethora of shades.

Unfortunately, profiling usually isn't based on stats but ideology and inherent prejudices.

So isn't black gang members responsible for most violent crimes in USA? And prejudice is part of human being and won't ever stop (if we are talking about generalization on before knowing a person based on the general statistic of a population) the probably isn't exactly the prejudice, but why that population is seem like that.

Because it's strange two countries know for racial tension follow that labelling approach.

Does your logic apply when white males go on mass shootings? As someone pointed out because you have light skin does that mean someone can profile you as a paedo because of the acts of someone with no connection to you? Maybe it means white males should be stopped from purchasing guns going by your logic or even police can randomly stop by their houses and question them over the ownership of any arms they have, profiling is just as bad because you're judging someone with out any knowledge of the content of their character, by doing this you're adding to the problem not solving it.

Black and Latin Americans have been targeted by the law in the US long before any of these stats were a factor.

When that kid went into a black church and shot a load of people he was called a disturbed individual, he even wanted his act to cause unrest and racial tension between blacks and whites, terrorism essentially but that word not once was used by the media. When two people of Arab descent did something similar the word terrorist was thrown around immediately. This is an example of what people are highlighting when they bring up the issue of white privilege.

Black and Latin weren't for a long time part of violent crime statistics? And as said before if we keep bringing what happened 50-150y before to say that is why those things happen now is quite troublesome, because it wouldn't explain why the chinese aren't involved in the same issues.

And profilling is a mean of being more effective... PC people love to bring silly things to the table and preach about prejudice and complain how unfair the world is (but only boycoting things that would be hurtfull to black people, but validating similar things if it's against white people). Whenever you put a situation in which everyone do a profiling the person either give a false answer or pretend it wasn't asked.

On a dark street late in the night, at one side of the street you have some folks dressed in gang like attire and are dark skined on the other side you see 2 mormon light skinned guys. Which side you would choose to go? If you can answer sincere and say it wasn't prejudice, it was self-preservation you'll understand profiling.

Except the chinese are given a different type of stereotype to what blacks and latin people, those 50-150 years you're trying to side step are the foundation of the chaos in racial tensions in the US today. Blacks and Latin for decades were targeted by the law for no reason because of the bitter society who now couldn't use them as free labour and slaves, they were attack by lynch mobs and denied any position of advancement. The gangs today like the Eme, Crips and such are the results of mobs formed to fight back. From what I've read the Chinese mainly arrived in numbers during a different period, they fortunately were not subject to what the blacks and latin people had to fully go through, if they did you'd find they'd have the same issues but mind you with the unrest between the US and China I wouldn't be surprised if they start having problems much like the Arabs have in recent decades.

If profiling is more efficient how is it the US has a higher crime rate then most countries in the world many of whom have a high level of diversity like the UK, France, Germany etc... and all of which curbed profiling decades ago and clamp down on it? Fact is it doesn't do anything it's just a means to continue the racial bitterness of before as rather then look for crime you target ethnic groups, other Countries look for evidence of crime and don't focus on skin colour, those 50-150 years you so want to ignore created a problem and profiling does the one thing that was the catalyst in creating it, it targets ethnic groups.

Essentially you start a fire and you're fighting it with the same fuel you used to create it. You also have failed to provide a response to the example I gave of the white male shooting in the black church to diliberately cause unrest in society and the shooters of arab descent doing something similar, both acts of terrorism but why was that word only used with the latter.

Brazil haven't had any of those discriminatory laws and people still preach the same white privilege, black people turned down and what not... and to support their claims they show statistics that are like 50%+ of population is black but prisional are 90% black and University 10%... and when you look at reality like I said is like 5% really black or white and 90% miscigenation, and the population on prision or university is about the same but for the bias of statistics they change the criterea for what is black. And chinese arrived as slaves in USA.

Please show evidence that there is no profilling on those countries... because we had a lot of noise when a police officer shot down a brazilian student because he tought he was terrorist.

Brazil have a lot more racial diversity than UK, so much that you basically can't really differentiate most folks because they interbrewed. You can look at ethinic traits or find some non miscigenated, but they are the very minority on population. And our violence is a lot bigger. You can't correlate profilling to safety on a country because you are just mistaking correlation, causation and all other.

You say I failed to respond while also ignoring the example I asked. But let's go to your point. Was the intention equal, method as well? From your description I didn't see both as acts of terrorism even if both driven terror. Or do you consider people that go to school and shoot a lot of people terrorism? In Brazil our president wanted to make public protest as acts of terrorism due to world cup. So aren't you also trying to broaden the term and ask why others that don't agree are wrong? Please show why both of your examples are terrorism and I may agree to prejudice, and I never said prejudice don't exist.

White privilege is a thing. I'm not going to write an essay because a ton of people that are way smarter and way more experienced than me have already done so but I've seen discrimination first hand

Well for a start I live in the UK, the police can't just stop you like they do in the US the has to be a solid actual reason like they're looking for someone who you may match a description and so on, if you're stopped for no reason they can face action. The incident you're reffering to was Charles De'Menzies it wasn't a racial issue it was a botched intelligence operation it's best you get your facts straight, the flying squad incorrectly monitored the wrong person suspected to be of the group who did the london 7/7 attacks. Thinking he was was going to carry out an attack he was shot only to find he wasn't who they were looking for, when an investigation took place they found the was a catalogue of error in the operation and everyone in charge was removed and charged.

Brazil from what we hear over here has had racial tension for year with treatment of darker skinned people being similar to what ethnic groups in the US put up with.

Lol sorry but prove to me Brazil has more diversity because UK has practically every culture present, Black, White, Latin, Arab, East Asian, Somali and even people of native origins, Islam, Sikh, Jewish, Christian, Bhuddist, Hindu, African, American, Canadian, Oceanian etc... the list goes on so for you to even make that claim is beyond bold as UK is probably the most diverse country I've been to, you can find any community here so I doubt your claim.

Finally you clearly don't have a response to my example, both acts were done with the same goal and that is to cause unrest in society and disturb any stability but even you yourself refuse to call the act by the white male terrorism yet happily agree the other is. Well done you've just highlighted what people mean by white privilege, I don't care about the President of Brazil as that doesn't even have any relevance to this example, two near identical acts yet only one is terrorism according to the media and yourself.

And what cause the error in inteligence and rash action?

Try to put police in brazil to only act to search if he received denounce or have facial portrait, no one would ever be searched ands crimes would rise even more.

You may be hearing much more than what happens and from biased info. Sources want to put violence against woman as big issue here, but forget that homicide against men is 7x higher so it isn't mysoginist murdering culture.

And you know what show we have even bigger diversity? Is that although we have the neighborhoods of immigrants ( most europeans countries, about all middle east, several of the asian, most south american and very few african but they are already part because slavery centuries ago) most of those guetthos are weak because most of the population in then after 1 or 2 generations end up mixing with locals not only in living in other neighborhoods but also marriage.

I agreed one of then is terrorism. I said one could be and another don't even if both are acts to cause terror. Or terrorism only goal is to unrest society? No further agenda? No connection with gaining power or having desires attended? White groups in Ireland and Spain are well know terrorist and their action and purpose is very well stablished... a single nutjob doing what you want to call terrorism but newspaper didn't said it was terrorism may not adhere. Or you call terrorism all the school shooting? You were so eager to call yourself winner that you rushed your conclusion, and still haven't answered my scenario.

And what cause the error in inteligence and rash action?

Try to put police in brazil to only act to search if he received denounce or have facial portrait, no one would ever be searched ands crimes would rise even more.

You may be hearing much more than what happens and from biased info. Sources want to put violence against woman as big issue here, but forget that homicide against men is 7x higher so it isn't mysoginist murdering culture.

And you know what show we have even bigger diversity? Is that although we have the neighborhoods of immigrants ( most europeans countries, about all middle east, several of the asian, most south american and very few african but they are already part because slavery centuries ago) most of those guetthos are weak because most of the population in then after 1 or 2 generations end up mixing with locals not only in living in other neighborhoods but also marriage.

I agreed one of then is terrorism. I said one could be and another don't even if both are acts to cause terror. Or terrorism only goal is to unrest society? No further agenda? No connection with gaining power or having desires attended? White groups in Ireland and Spain are well know terrorist and their action and purpose is very well stablished... a single nutjob doing what you want to call terrorism but newspaper didn't said it was terrorism may not adhere. Or you call terrorism all the school shooting? You were so eager to call yourself winner that you rushed your conclusion, and still haven't answered my scenario.

The were a host of mistakes like one of the officers meant to watch him was meant to confirm if he's the man they're after on the day he was shot but the officer was taking a slash in the bushes so missed the chance to identify him.

More men dying also doesn't mean women aren't being abused or attacked, using one set of stats to dismiss a problem is a flawed way to look at issues as it leads to the denial of the being a problem.

The paragraph about neighbourhoods isn't very clear doesn't make much sense, can't tell what you're trying to say here.

The two acts were identical in nature and their goal so how is it only one of them is terrorism, they're either both terrorism or not, terrorism is not exclusive to groups it can be individuals. Terrorism is the act to maliciously destablize a country or society it has nothing to do with groups or individuals it's just the act and the goal of the act itself, someone going into a school and shooting because he's being bullied is not terrorism or even comparable but someone going into a school and shooting with the goal to maliciously attack the society is terrorism.

This why that guy not being laballed a terrorist while the two people of Arab descent having terrorism flashed all over their incident is a prime example of what people are highlighting here.
