people struggle to understand that concept when they havent grown up around and been educated on seperate backgrounds, and are very one note in thinking.

I think the white privilege is a term designed to make people feel guilty and it promotes socialism. The best way to teach people to respect all cultures is to teach children to love everyone regardless of race, creed or culture.
Privilege itself prevents a person from gaining a strong understanding of the tribulations many populations have gone through. While not all places have been colonized, the people of European areas invented colonization to force others to abide by their lifestyles and beliefs. It was not until this decade that school curriculums within the United States finally began to open up about the destructive and genocidal behaviors that the churches sought out to steal control over countless lands and populations. More and more people are evolving to understand the meaning of white privilege through social media platforms in turn sort of pushing the curriculums to slightly de-censor the books that we study in primary school, even to the college level.

White priviledge does not exist outside of of the socialist mind set. As a white male I was not given any privilege and have worked my tail off for everything I have achieved. The things I have achieved are available to all in this country through hard work, dedication, and education. The sooner we quit giving people.excuses such as "white priviledge" the sooner they will learn to achieve their own version of the American Dream.
White privilege is not to say you didn’t work hard. It is acknowledging the fact that you did not have to work as hard as someone that is not white. Or in your case a white male. As a white female I have seen many of my friends have different, less opportunities than I had and have due to the pigment of skin. And as a female specifically I have seen many men have greater opportunities than I have. Take a look at people in power of our country, it is dominating in mainly white men, then white people. Your excuse of white privilege not being relevant because you have had struggles yoursel… Read more
y'all shouldn't say anything about white or the black whites struggle as much as black people you only criticize it very wrong white and black should be treated equally

Most people who do have white privilege are unable to see it because that's how they've lived all their lives and also how their family raised them. However, I don't think white privilege is as prevalent in the legal system as some people think. I think white privilege is more of a social and cultural issue.
@9KCPJ6V1yr1Y
Because some people weren't taught the history of other races and don't understand or process or care about what their ancestors been through. "Priviledged people" are considered "soft" and stupid with their words. The people who are insensitive to others are the people who have been shelter and seek attention.
@9K9CC351yr1Y
See critical race theory and how privilege has been taught as an assumed right without emphasis on what it would feel like to not have that right
@9KBS3Y51yr1Y
I think that people find it hard to accept the fact that they may be privileged compared to someone else, as it brings up feelings of guilt
@9K9H2FB1yr1Y
Some people struggle to understand the concept of white privilege as racism hasn't affected them so they fail to see it
@9KLLGG91yr1Y
I dont think its hard to understand the concept people just dont want to understand the topic. Black people have gotten treated terrible in so many ways that I wont ever understand that reason. White people get to walk around and barely have any problems and barely get treated crazy by cops or others.
@87RZLZKLibertarian5mos5MO
Yes
Basically explain it to someone as this: think of the "bad side of your town" now think what life you and your family would have had if you LEGALLY couldn't buy/rent a house anywhere but there.
Changes the WHOLE perspective.
