Why I don't like the term "white privilege"

[bravenak]

132. How much money do I make?

I qualify for Medicaid. What do you think about that?

Before she, the decendant of slaves gives up her wealth, the descendants of the slave masters/beneficiaries of slave labor and white privilege should give up theirs. Black people didn't invent racism in America, white folks did that. It's their responsibility to change the racism they inflict upon us. We've been trying to fix this fallout from eugenics and slavery for centuries. Now it's their turn to try to fix it. They benefit from it, we don't.


You thought I was rich, huh? That's funny. It's like the onion around here, for real.
I'm also not a college graduate.
I even dropped out of high school so that I could pay my rent after my stepdads unfortunate self inflicted death.
Anything I know, I pretty much taught it to myself.

I am a product of multi generational poverty. I know what government cheese tastes like, something you probably didn't know existed.
I know that the one dollar food stamps were white and brown.
I lived through the LA riots of 92.
I know what I'm talking about when it comes to racism in America, and I haven't even been to the worst places.

Look, I understand you have your blinders on when it comes to white privilege so I'm going to stop trying so hard to help you get it.
I will post a link to free literature from amazon Called Slave narratives. They will make you cry, and hopefully you will begin to understand the deep roots of racism in America.

You make me want to write a history of racism in America from my perspective to help those less fortunate than I gain an understanding of how we got where we are.

BTW, you shouldn't ask people how much money they make as it is vulgar In the extreme.
