Well, as a Black American, I believe we, too, have Privilege, plus my White brothers and sisters shouldn't feel guilty for something they didn't even do or even participate in.
What privilege do we have?
@@bezogib Do you live in America?
@@danielsantana8601 Yes and I never received any privilege. What privilege have you received
@@bezogib Well I have the privilege to be what I want in America I have the privilege to say what I want In America the problem is that people love that victim mentality and it is evident to me that you're one of those people and no matter what I say you will always believe that you're right.
@@danielsantana8601 First off you don’t know me I don’t live by the victim mentality never had to my parents are not from this country and been married for 47 years we’ve never been poor and as a child I always had what I needed in life now I am 42 married with one child and me and my wife own a home so I’m doing fine in life never needed to play the victim but I’ll bet you’re with a white person and the privilege that you say you have every race in America has that same privilege
Omg after watching the end of this video I just realized I'm a black man with white privilege!!!!!
How so?
@@RojaJaneman because all these "so called white privileges" are privileges certain people of all races have today. They depend on the individual not skin tone
You may have some privileges but you have to factor the whole black community. They all don’t benefit. Until every black person wealthy or poor can say what you said, then white privilege will always be the status quo.
Then, that's the same with every race, including whites.
@@BEAUTIKEY you get out of life exactly what you put in. If you put in alot of effort you will probably do well. If you put in zero effort and blame other people then you won't get very much back.

Would be nice to have had an opposing point of view speak about why this topic is controversial. No Tom Sowell, or Jason Powell, or Glenn Loury or Larry Elder, or Carol Swain. No responsibility or accountability discussions......etc.

Lol yes
Dr. Phil must be getting desperate for attention 🤣
Aye, Gotta give it to him for that
There are a million privileges. It isn’t just “white privilege” and “male privilege.” What about hard work privilege, tall privilege, attractive privilege, 2 parent privilege, intelligent privilege, healthy privilege, not disabled privileged, wealth privilege? Being intelligent, good looking, and hard working, will get you far in life, if you apply it correctly, regardless of skin color.
You are absolutely correct… And I’m a black guy FYI. It’s just that Black people collectively have been through more social injustice than any other underprivileged group in the history of the United States… And trust me, I am not a woe is me black guy. I have a masters degree and I do quite well financially.
@@cvance37 dude, no one cares about your skin color. Why did you have to tell people you are black?
What? Black people are not the ones who have received the most social injustice. Natives by far take that one.
@@trenthaverfield5836 oh God please open a history book. Are you serious?
@@trenthaverfield5836 Black’s underwent forced assimilation and were stripped of their identity entirely tho.
Native’s were brutalized but they’ve managed to hold on to semblances of their culture while also remaining on their homeland.
I'm quoting another CZcams commenter here: "White Privilege is the ability to suffer through life’s universal indignities without blaming another ethnic group."
This comment reeks of ignorance. What a privilege it must be to presume that people of color somehow benefit from “blaming other ethnic groups” for their suffering. You think you have it hard because you don’t have any reason why your Mammy and PawPaw are really cousins and been living off of welfare and disability checks all their life? You don’t have the “advantage” to understand WHY you come from a line of incest and drug addiction. You and your spectacle of a lineage has had it so hard and there is no one to blame… What a sob story. In fact, I’m so sorry that being white means you have no one to blame for the inhumane lack of empathy and self awareness in which has been recorded, repeated, & proven in history time and time again.
@@jazk3003 If POC's (or anyone else) don't benefit from "blaming other ethnic groups", then why do they do it? Of course, the sentence I quoted didn't mention any supposed benefit, so YOU brought it up. The remainder of your comment seems an attempt at an ethnic slur, which you would have called RACIST if it had been directed at you. The weird thing is, I can be called "honky", or "cracker", or "inbred white trash", or any other ethnic slur, and it doesn't bother me a bit. Are you hypersensitive, or do you have some sort of inferiority complex?
@@jazk3003 What a _privilege_ to presume you know what it is like to have the experience of another ethnic group too.
Maybe cause white people literally can’t blame another group.
@@Satan666Official How is presumption a privilege? Presumption is more or less an opinion and everyone can have one. Opinions aren't race specific and are found in ALL races. And, he never said a damn thing about knowing the experiences of another ethnic group. He said WHITES don't blame their failures on blacks as blacks blame us for ALL of their many failures that are 100% their own fault.

@@jazmencromer5059 I speak in facts. Not opinion
Six thousand years and we're still talking about skin color.
When they say "diversity" what they actually mean is "non-whiteness". I have never, ever heard of any criticism of any country that is 99% percent 1 race, if its non-white. The mainly-white countries are surely amongst the most racially diverse countries in the world, yet it is only these countries that are being singled out and called upon to have ever-increasingly more racial diversity.
Where's the criticism of Pakistan for example. for not having more racial diversity? Wheres the criticism of the African nations, for not having more racial diversity ???
I don't see or hear about Inclusion and diversity in these countries, why ??? Because there is none, because if you use this definition those countries are already as non-white as they could possibly be and therefore they arent a "problem"
You are 100% correct what these people are is anti white. Why are only white people supposed to feel guilty over the evils all races of people have committed in history.
In Pakistan, They have Punjabis, Pashtuns, Sindhis, Saraikis, Muhajirs, and Balochs. As well as 6% Other ethnicities. And Pakistan *does* recieve criticism for race relations.
Nigeria has Hausa-Fulani, Youruba, Igbo, Ijaw, Kanuri, Ibibio, Tuv, and a further 12% of other ethnicities. Their largest ethnic group only has 26% of the entire demographic.
@@maapauu4282 RACIAL DIVERSITY! not different ethnic groups of the same race lmao.
@@darrellm9915 They aren't the same race. They are different. Please educate yourself on this before commenting. Besides, those countries do get criticized for lack of diversity. Nigeria even had an entire civil war about it.
@@maapauu4282 Only 3 ethnic groups you listed are non-natives of Pakistan, and these examples aren't a significant amount of the population like non-whites are in white countries.If you're going to make such a weak comparison then you're the one who needs to be educated.
i love when i hear a black lawyer and a black university professor talking about oppression and privilege. also lumping an entire race together in a certain group. pretty sure theirs a name for that...
*there’s
@@lcs8512 🤓
Right, because obviously just because there are 2 examples of people from a group in power shown, it obviously means that everyone is equal. People aren't lumping an ethnicity together, they're talking about systems and how ethnicities can be favored or disfavored by a system.
@@maapauu4282 funny how that favour now leans the other way and no one is calling it the same thing as it was. Fight fire with fire?
@@sampindo2 It doesn't lean the other way. Give me one example of anti-white racism in the mainstream that is as big as anti-POC racism
This discussion would have been far more productive if it centered around teaching adults about how to not be a victim.

White Privilege is the fact that you're not discriminate against because of the color of the color of your skin. Even you don't realize it. It's like you're invisible. As a black person is seen and prejudged by biases and stereotypes. White people don't go through that by being white.
@@williewalker5051 Hmm. Who today gets th e blame for the worlds problems? And who is told they should hate there race because of history?
@@wildturkey3776 ok let me try to explain. So Please Listen. Us black Folks don't want you to hate yourself white people. We want you to listen and know what your ancestors and other white folks did to Native Black Folks that were here before many of you so called white people. What happened to the African slaves and there descendants was as bad and longer than the Holocaust. But The Jewish people got reparations.The slave owners got reparations. The Japanese got $20,000 a piece after ww2. Try to understand the trauma that Native African Americans ie Black Folks experienced. And have some sympathy
@@williewalker5051 A lot of people that have these privileges do not realize that they have them because it is the only experience that they know.
@@williewalker5051 When you say native black folk, dont you mean native Americans?
I'm more concerned about black privilege which is rampant.
That's a Democratic strategic ploy.
White privilege is your history being apart of the core curriculum and mine being taught as an elective.
Not white privilege when over 60% of the population is white and only 13% is black what do you think they would be teaching go to Africa and see if the %'s are opposite!

Can you pls give an example of what you re talking about...
@@frankanello2984 thank you...
United States history is for blacks and whites, don't be fooled.
Remember how for last 50 yrs we were told its racist to generalize about & assign a label to entire group based on skin tone. Now its ok though because your doing it to whites? Saying all white people have white privilege is epitome of being racist.
Privilege is wearing $300 sneakers when you’ve never had a job. Privilege is wearing $200 Apple Airpods while living on public assistance. Privilege is having a Smartphone with a Data plan which you receive no bill for. Privilege is living in public subsidized housing where you don’t have a utility bill and where rising property taxes and rents and energy costs have absolutely no effect on the amount of food you can put on your table. Privilege is having free health insurance for you and your family that's paid for by working people who can't afford health insurance for their families. Privilege is having multiple national organizations promoting and protecting your race that's subsidized by federal tax dollars. Privilege is having access to a national college fund that supports only your race. Privilege is having a television network that supports only your race. Privilege is the ability to go march against, and protest against anything that triggers you, without worrying about calling out of work and the consequences that accompany such. Privilege is having as many children as you want, regardless of your employment status, and be able to send them off to daycare or school you don’t pay for. Still waiting for this "privilege" I'm supposed to have...
Me too. Let me know if you find a place I can cash mine in at
The privilege we have is not getting shot from the police for reaching for our wallet. Not worrying about getting shot by some civilian accusing u of breaking into their house while ur on a jog Bc of the color of ur skin. U won’t ever have to worry bout ur kids getting killed because of the color in their skin. U won’t ever have to tell ur kids certain things to do and abide by because their darker
@@j.r.8592 U do realize u won’t ever have to tell ur kid don’t blare rap music it makes u suspicious. or hoodies darker than the sky. Or don’t ever reach for ur pockets before telling the cops. Your life and ur children’s life would never be at risk because of the color of ur skin. But that’s only part of ur privilege
@@ryanvazquez3625 who wants to be the one to tell him more whites die at the hands of police?
@@j.r.8592 yes of course more whites people have been killed by cops because white people take up most the population.
None of those things apply to me. 1.)
I dont feel represented in tv or movies
2.) I get harassed when I shop ( the manager follows me around ALOT at walmart; I even find myself making obvious gestures when I'm picking up items or placing them in my buggy or paying for them because I feel so scrutinized)
3.) Ive been pulled over for no reason, been asked to step out of the truck and been searched (for no reason) I've never had anyone ask me what I do for a living (because I've never driven any car that was nice enough) HOWEVER I HAVE been asked many times who's vehicle I'm driving...and
4.)
People are usually surprised that I'm articulate and well spoken. In fact I had one woman ask me where I was from...
I said "This town that were in right now."
She said " No I mean where are you FROM?"
Confused, I replied, " I was born in the hospital in town."
She kind of shook her head like I didn't understand the question and then, "I mean you must have lived most of your life somewhere else and then came back right? You dont sound like a Southerner. You dont sound like you're from around here."
I looked at her and said very clearly and slowly, " I went to preschool at the ### Church (right down the road), I attended the only elementary and high school in town, I've lived in this small town /county all my life. "
So I'm just not seeing that skin color has anything to do with it.
I actually liked Dr Phil until now.
*Idk about the credit card thing because I dont have one but I DO always have to show my ID when using a check. Yes, even in a town as small as mine where almost every one knows every one.
But is that BECAUSE OF YOUR RACE. Is it? It's a different dynamic. You're just denying and scrambling. Defensive for no reason... instead of listening and understand. Disgraceful. And really, White ppl aren't represented? Your race isn't represented??💀💀💀😭 yeah sure
I've gotten almost 20 tickets and have been to jail a total of 11 times. I guess in still waiting on my privilege to kick in lol. The whole "white privilege" is a divide and conquer tactic. Just Google the statistics on successful black people and you can see the numbers.
@@Laura-sg6ss the same way you asked "is it because of your race"... also question your view point, is it because of their race there re also treated this way..
@@bibaolaitan5189 read your comment again, refurbish it and then come back. No, it wasn't because of her race is the issue. There's a difference between going through something and going through something with race being the REASON that it happened. Class could be the issue, gender, sexuality, the fact that you had an argument with someone and now they don't like you etc etc, it wasn't her race that *caused* it to happen, she's just been through some horrible things *and* she's White, she didn't go through it BECAUSE she's White. Difference. Again for the last time, no.
@@Laura-sg6ss go and read my comment again... where i never said her race caused it. I said, how do you know race causes these discomfort in minorities. you mentioned diff reasons as to why you might face prejudice, like; class, sexuality etc... why does it not apply to non white people.
Let’s talk about the black fragility that exists in this society! I see waaaaayyyy more of that! Today there is so much black fragility!

Alonzo Bodden said... and im paraphrasing... "I dont think any white person has been pulled over in a BMW and asked how do you afford this car?"
A very similar thing happened to me and i'm white. I was pulled over in my late 20's in a 3 series BMW 325 (so not even an expensive model).
The cop must have thought I looked suspicious and asked me if this was my car.
Yes,
Is it registered in your name?
Yes,
Are you sure because I'm going to check.
Yes,
White people don't know what its like growing up black and black people don't know what its like growing up white, so stop making statements you know nothing about.
Yes and if you’re female and white and in a nice-ISH car, it’s “daddy’s” car, and you must be a spoiled rich kid. Forget that it’s merely a newer model Hyundai, you can barely afford the note on it but you didn’t have enough cash to buy a used one outright, and you are actually in your 30’s working at a grocery store and delivering for UberEats at night to make ends meet.

When I was very young I noticed that at school the Indians got everything for free. For example, if they needed a new binder or gym shoes, they’d go to the office and what they needed was given to them. In addition, I also noticed that they were not treated the same. For example, I got in trouble one day at school, but not a word was said to my Indian friend. Later that night, my mom explained that the teacher did not want to be called a racist.
Yeah I was pulled over by a cop, the first thing he ask me how did I afford this car, he was so fixed on an answer that he got so mad and mean he was turning red.
It doesn’t exist. Done!
It does in some way.
When my father was paralyzed and we starved after the relatives couldn't help us any more than they already had and the V.A. dragged its feet and we were losing our house while he lay in the hot living room with no electricity and my mother asked for government help to be told "you are the wrong color" and I have to hear this ridiculous narrative perpetuated for the next very tough 30 years while almost every person of the "right race" lived better lives without even concern for getting a job it makes it more than a little hard to take. I went to work at 14, paid my way in college unlike people who weren't the "wrong color". This is literally insult to injury.
I sense BS. You're claiming that your family was denied government assistance because of your race? And moreover, you're claiming that you have witnessed (&/or experienced) this type of injustice multiple times, over the past 30 years, since?
@@1StepForwardToday I've lived it. I've even been turned down multiple jobs I was qualified for because of diversity hires. So you want to continue running your mouth?
@@WNActivist88
Idk if I believe that you've been turned down jobs "multiple times" bcuz the companies wanted to hire minorities. How do you know why you were turned down these jobs? Maybe there were multiple people applying who were equally qualified, and they just picked someone else by chance. But, at any rate, even if we assume that your experiences losing job opportunities simply become of your race were accurate and true, I certainly don't believe the guys story in the original post. It sounds like pure BS.
I'm not an advocate of affirmative action. Obviously, white and Asian people do get rejected due to their race. But, I don't think that it's as big of a deal or problem as some people are making it out to be. Blacks should obviously be held to the same standards as the rest of us. Whoever is most qualified for a job, or a school should be the one who gets it. Blacks are 100% just as capable as anyone else if they try. But, dysfunction is still reverberating in the black community from the lingering effects of slavery and racism. So, they may need a little help to get them going. But, it appears clear to me that that is changing drastically within the black community. I think that the vast majority of blacks are now just as capable as any other race to achieve success in any field that they choose. So, imo, affirmative action should very soon be coming to an end. And, regarding "diversity hiring", that should have never existed in the first place. In fact, I believe, without a doubt, that "diversity hiring" (& affirmation action for that matter), is a constitutional violation, to deny someone a job/school (eg. a Caucasian), based solely upon their race. And, the constitution will absolutely protect anyone who can prove that they have been denied due to their race.
My question is when has a police officer ever pulled anyone over and then said
“I’m sorry, didn’t realize you were white. Carry on.”

You got white skin privilege. If you are a black skinned korean they will descriminate you. It happens in south korea where they descriminate dark skin koreans and they call them "filipinos" like it's a derogatory term. The fact of the matter is we live in a white/eurocentric bubble where if your skin is white = good wealthy person

I actually was pulled over and asked: "how'd you afford this car??" I've also been beat by the police. I've had the police "accidentally" surround my house due to wrong address. I've been writ tickets for things I didn't do. Like when I'm wearing a seatbelt getting a seatbelt ticket because the cop says I probably won't fight it and they have a quota.... I am poor. I am a creator for others. Am I privileged? Yes, because I'm here. So, now IF YOU QUESTION that sentiment or if you harp on it, you are the one trying to gain privilege over me by me giving it to you.
I say THROW THE RING INTO THE FIRE FRODO.
Some folks would be mad at white privilege or jealous of it
It is ok to be white, not ashamed. I was born this way, I had no choice in my skin color. I have had a really really hard life, I worked hard and fought for what little I do have. It’s very offensive that people would call me out because of my white skin and consider me privileged. All this is a form of racism and it’s sickening.
Agree 100%. Blaming white men for everything wrong in the world seems to be fashionable at the moment
The left supports racism against whites.
@@j.r.8592 lmao if that’s the case white people should do some self reflection not saying all white people are racist but instead of ignoring the truth so you can feel better you should hold each other accountable like other communities… look i get it you feel the whole world hates white people and we’re always bashing y’all we’re not we’re just explaining the truth that’s pretty much all we can do in a white dominated society we know not all y’all are racist but the people that are racist and have the most power to act on it are usually white people you have to accept that so we as a society can move on we are not out to get you I’m black Im just tired of having to go through this shii for decades…I have to be fully knowledgeable that my future kids are going to whether they like it or not deal with racism something that I can never understand
I agree! Never apologize for the color of your skin due to SJW “facts” once a person apologizes this is how they feed into the SJW mob
@@joekennerson6927 Racism exist everywhere, regardless which continent you are from. I think it is important to look into history and see that many people are from very different countries and culture. As an East Asian living in the West, blaming all whites for the bad deeds of others in the past or present is a form of racism. Just as I'm not going to blame you for the bad deeds of others within your communities. Sadly the criminal acts is a lot harder to shake off, which many other groups / cultures experienced when the Europeans left their motherland in search of more lands to conquer. The world was a very dangerous place back then, but we are here now and I'm sorry that some within your communities continue to create negative stereotypes for you and your family. Though I do not believe in white privilege, I do agree with you that we need to pause and not let fear / resentment or ego impair our response when in contact with other ethnic communities and cease perpetuating racism. Holding others within our communities accountable is also something I agree with.
So Dr Phil, it is in the fabric of our society...what do we do about it? Are we getting closser or farther from racism by using and believing these fad terms? What is the fix?
As a white person YES I have been pulled over and asked how I could afford a brand new car that I was pulled over in. So yes it happens to white people too.
What is the white privilege of a poor white man on welfare? What about rich minorities? Do they have privilege? These questions are dumb and so are people who care about it. Do your thing and win, no matter how hard it is.
It's amazing that this is even still a discussion because those who experienced these privileges they know that they know that they have been if you feel that you have the police on your side that you should be in a more comfortable environment that you should be comfortable and someone else have another ethnicity shouldn't be in general it shows that and then the fact of the topic being so threatening to anyone that is non black makes its own valid point in itself
1 Me being white was being followed around the store as he kept an eye on me.
2 My white daughter was pulled over and surrounded by 4 or 5 cop cars over a traffic violation
3 when I was 16, a few of us stopped at a restaurant for a coke after hanging out in the skating rink. One white guy was dragged from our group with no explanation as the white guy was was frantically asking what did I do.
4 At age 19 I went in to apply for a job and was told that they didn’t hire white people
5 was in a store and witnessed this homeless white guy being questioned where he got the food stamped card. He said it was his. He didn’t even get a chance to run it through the system
Your experiences is black ppl experience everyday
I'm SO disappointed with Dr. Phil on this episode. He let so many ignorant statements go by without providing insight!!! but reprimanded everyone for not showing sympathy to the lady being suspended from her job. she wasn't even fired! if she was completely innocent, why did they suspend her. She claimed she was just doing her job---then why was she suspended. Why did Dr. Phil feel the need to reprimand the panel for acknowledging her "pain", but he didn't feel the need to correct some extremely ignorant statements made by the two Caucasian women saying white privilege is racist and minorities have all the advantages.
It’s official Dr. Phil has gone woke
Woke is not a bad thing. The meaning of Woke was hijacked by racist white people. Blacks used the term Woke after The twice impeached crybaby was elected. We said stay woke on injustices that are happening. Woke is simply a term blacks used to not be asleep on racism and injustices. But racist took Woke and gave it another meaning. Same thing they did to Kapernick taking a knee. He took a knee for police brutality and injustices. Racist turned it into an anti flag anti anthem. Every time blacks use a term for injustices racist turn it into a negative and then white america falls for it hook line and sinker.
Another example of white privilege is that white people don't have to deal with race issues at all if they don't want to. If you're the majority, you tend to be the default and you're not forced to adapt to the culture of another race of people. People who aren't white are forced to adapt to white culture in some ways and are affected by it in sometimes negative (and sometimes positive) ways.

Who is to say who does and does not deserve whatever!!
Whenever someone decides to give u attention or not, they’re judging whether u deserve it or not. Or whenever someone wants to share information or sell anything with/to u they’re judging whether u deserve it or not. People make such decisions hundreds of times per weak. Like sharing space in public or even time or words. Otherwise we couldn’t possibly function. We don’t have unlimited time/resources to give everyone everything we have.
Judging is intrinsically human.
It seems like the real losers are the ones making the rules!!

I think that it is less about white privilege and more about black and brown disprivilege.
As a bi-racial woman, I can tell you that “White privilege” is definitely not a “myth,” and I am a conservative, politically. HOWEVER the way in which the left describes white privilege is an over exaggeration and many of the aspects they have added in are not real. White privilege, from my lifetime experience is that when you are born white, you NEVER have to think about race, you are NEVER viewed as racially inferior, you are NEVER looked at as violent or lower class simply based on the color of your skin. In addition, the media and entertainment overwhelmingly represents you, your look and culture is considered the “norm,” when white women go to stores they automatically have your skin color in bandaids, makeup, etc.
absolute rubbish.
@@eggsbenedict8449 You are obviously white. 🙄
@@user-mw5yp2fv8s No kidding genius, And proud of it. You think your experience is the only one because you are coloured. It's honestly pathetic
@@user-mw5yp2fv8s I've figured out that people of colour are basing this so called white privilege on their own experience and have not considered that it may not be true for every white person. This thinking is very dangerous and will lead to a divided and hateful society. I've got sioux and african american blood, from my great great grandfather and identify with the struggles of indigenous peoples. But because of my skin colour I've bean beaten up by a group of darker skinned girls, and constantly harassed in my younger years by people of colour.Less now because I just don't try to be friends with clearly racist people. I've been followed around the store and looked upon with suspicion because of maybe what I looked like idk. It's called discrimination and it happens to people of all colours. I've been beaten by police. And I'm white and thats my experience. I've also experienced violence & oppression by my ex partner who is far more privileged than me economically and status wise. I have had to worry about the colour of my skin and I am sure other white people especially today do too. I have 2 sons both of mixed blood. One of them has bought into this lie and the other one hasn't. Guess which one I don't have a relationship with today ? He is trying to bully me into admitting I have white privilege, we are all very worried about him because he has become so sick with this thinking.
@@eggsbenedict8449 Please do not group me with every person of color. You honestly sound like a flaming racist. Did you even READ my original comment? I am a conservative politically and do not agree with the liberal definition of “white privilege.” I don’t believe in systemic racism, I don’t believe one’s skin-color holds them back from success in my country (America.) However, White privilege does exist in the sense that if you are black or even bi-racial, you are subject to negative stereotypes daily. In addition, you are made to feel (especially as a woman) that you are ugly if you have kinky hair or black features because European features are the standard of beauty. Even though I am very light and resemble Meghan Markle (I am told this almost daily) I as a child was called the “N” word multiple times growing up in a white neighborhood, most of the baby dolls and barbies I saw in the toy store as a child were white, I was teased at 4 years old and told I was adopted by the neighborhood white kids because my birth mother is white with blond hair and blue eyes. This brings about pain and a realization that you are viewed differently by society VERY early on. You are white, and obviously a racist and extremely ignorant so you will never, ever understand this. Not ever. Being born white affords you the privilege of never having to be looked down upon because of your race, and society represents you as a whole. If you deny this I seriously question your IQ.

White "Privilege is exactly the same thing as Black, Spanish, Asian, Chinese "Privilege":
If you work hard, play by the rules, never give up, work around obstacles/disappointments, make sound/careful life decisions, you will Improve both Yourself, your circumstances, and the circumstances of those around you. This "Privilege is available to ALL......it's just that a greater percentage of the number of white people practice it. More Whites succeed, NOT because of racism, but because a greater number of them are out there busting their bums to succeed.
But instead of trying to get MORE people practicing this non-racist work ethic, people just find it so much easier to rationalize their shortcomings by shouting "racism" and "white privilege".
I think if you work hard you are successful, if you are lazy you are not successful and they extrapolate this to become white privilege.
My sister sure experienced white privilege when she was gang Rpt by a bunch of Ns at age 15. Just found this out today when my parents told me they had to take her near dead to the hospital.
What is Privilege?
a) Privilege is wearing $200 sneakers when you’ve never had a job.
b) Privilege is wearing $300 Beats headphones while living on public assistance.
c) Privilege is having a Smartphone with a Data plan, which you receive no bill for.
d) Privilege is living in public subsidized housing where you don’t have a utility or phone bill and where rising property taxes, rents and energy costs have absolutely no effect on the amount of food you can put on your table, which is largely covered by Government Food Stamps.
e) Privilege is having free health insurance for you and your family that's paid for by working taxpayers who often can't afford proper health coverage for their own families.
f) Privilege is having multiple national organizations promoting and protecting just your race alone -- that are subsidized by federal tax dollars.
g) Privilege is having access to a national college fund that supports only one race.
h) Privilege is having a television network that supports only one race.
i) Privilege is having most of the media news networks refuse to cover incidents wherein one race (one-eighth of the population) commits 50% of the crimes.
j) Privilege is the ability to go march against, and protest against anything that triggers you, without worrying about calling off from work and the consequences that accompany such.
k) Privilege is having as many children as you want, regardless of your employment status, and be able to send them off to daycare or pre-school you don’t pay for.
l) Privilege is being able to vote in many states without showing a driver's license, voter ID card or other credentials -- just because your race claims they should be exempt from such requirements.
m) Privilege is being able to riot, loot, commit arson and tear down historic monuments without consequences -- just because you don't like folks such as Columbus, U. S. Grant or even Lincoln.
n) Privilege is being able to get into almost any college of your choosing based on your race, not your grades or merit
o) Privilege is having most of your life paid for by the working men and women who DO HAVE TO DEAL WITH RISING TAXES AND COSTS! you know, those you now call “PRIVILEGED.”

I think this topic should be defined more as a self- entitled, first served, cry baby attitude, instead of a privileged luck of the draw upbringing.
Anyone can have that attitude btw
A Dr Phil video with an open comment section?
A one sided opinion...
I have to ask a few questions to anyone stumbling upon this comment and demand you answer politely so we can have a productive conversation :
1- Would you say that minorities face certain disavantages regarding jobs, education, opportunities in the US ?
If your first answer's yes then is it possible that the problem most people have with the white privilege concept is the name ? Would calling it minorities disavantage (or something along those lines) make more sense for you ?
In that case, would you agree that many people will face terrible hardships in their lives, no matter their skin tone ?
But then (and this is where it might get controversial), wouldn't it be fair to say that no matter the many hardships white people may face in the US it's won't ever be because of their skin color ?
I also want to state that not all people of color suffer hardships from their skin, in fact some might be more privileged because class privilege comes BEFORE race privilege, and so skin tone doesn't automatically mean you're privileged or not of course.
If you disagree, I'll be very interested to have a CIVIL and POLITE conversation in the comments below ⬇️
Shanou, I have to agree with you that calling it something other than privilege would ease much of the controversy surrounding the term.
I understand where you’re coming from the only part I disagree with is “not all people of color suffer hardships from their skin”. If you’re referring to globally there’s definitely some truth to it HOWEVER since we’re communicating in English id like to assume that you’re referring to the United States. And if you are referring to America, please believe that if you’re of color (non-white) racism is inevitable. And it just comes down to the fact that white people don’t need to teach their kids the same things as others. So if I have to teach my future kids about racism knowing that they most likely will endure it, but yet white folks don’t have to that’s when the “privilege” is evident. Long story short if you’re white you have the luxury of never experiencing or having to worry about racism whereas other ethnic groups DONT have that kind of luxury.
QUESTION: if I answer the first question with a "no," do I just disregard the paragraph following it?
@Half&Half of a Half Answer however you like, I was just trying to understand what was it about the term "white privilege" that was so difficult in America. I'm not from there so.
@@flowerhornparadise4139
Then, based upon your given examples of privileges that white people have, of which, black people do not), why is it called "white privilege", given the fact that Asians, (including Indians from India), have these same privileges that black people do not?
Based upon Dr. Phil; White Privilege is a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group. It's also an inherent advantages possessed by a white person on the basis of their race in a society characterized by racial inequality and injustice. ,Based upon these definitions, there are some whites, who fit within this definition. I mean SOME whites. However, there's other groups of peope in America, who enjoy similar privileges as well. Although race is a factor and only a factor, there's two other factors that redefine the word privilege to a whole new level and meaning: 1. Wealth; this factor transcends all people who are lucky enough to be a part of it. Wealth and riches could change everything in anyone's life. Some people would say money isn't everything, however, money is an enourmous advantage to those who have it. 2. Connections; this factor enables people to get what they want due to not what they know, but who they know. You could be very intelligent and responsible, but if you don't have family, relatives nor real friends in positions of influence, then you'll most likely won't live up to your full potential. There is a third factor and it should be taken into consideration. 3. Wisdom; knowledge and rightful judgement are important for anyone who wants to fulfill their goals. Determination, resolve, motivation and commitment are factors as well. So race, religion, national origin, and enthicity are only limited factors to obtaining and maintaining privileges in America and beyond!
As an American Mexican in south Texas, I have NEVER experienced racism; I have only ever experienced CLASSISM and it came more often from my fellow American Mexican people, but that is also because the majority demographic is American Mexican where I live, but regardless, if I was experiencing this horrific racism that (mostly white) people complain about and saw the evil white man "taking advantage of their white privilege," someone please answer me this:

People are confusing a sociological term with classism. They always think of money. It’s not about if you were poor. White people don’t know they’re experiencing it. I realized it existed when I was a teenager, I’m fourth generation American but ethnicity is Mexican and people walk up to me, “Do you speak English?” And my first thought why wouldn’t speak English.? My white friends never asked that, the is nations of immigrants so it’s supposed be diverse, English isn’t even the official language here, yet I’m seen as a foreigner because I’m brown. I’ve been in stores like Macys as a teenager followed around by security and approached to open my bag but my white friends weren’t, when I asked why he said “all Mexicans steal”, I couldn’t believe he said that. my white friends don’t deal with that nonsense of people assuming your an immigrant or that they steal. So white privilege does exist. BUT I do believe classism can destroy your white privilege. My poor friends who are white deal with stuff their white wealthy friends don’t deal with. I also have privilege, the privilege of being an American citizen, everyone in life has some sort of privileges, privilege of having all your senses and limbs, everyone has something someone else doesn’t have in life.

I believe that this assertion of white privilege is way to dumbed down. You can’t just look at a person’s skin color and automatically assume based on generalizations that particular person is privileged. You don’t know what people have gone through and maybe instead of judging them, you can give them a smile and try to be friendly towards them regardless of who they are. Yes, they may not have to deal with what you understand as struggle, but inversely they also have issues that you have no idea what they are going through. To give some else added grief just because they appear to be happy isn’t an ethical thing to do. It won’t make you happier, and it will most likely lead that person to resentment of yourself or your cause. The best way to persuade someone to think differently is call them in not call them out.
