10 Insidious Ways White Supremacy Shows Up in Our Everyday Lives
1. College Professors Are More Likely to Respond to Students They Believe Are White Men
2. White People (Including Children) Are Less Moved by the Pain of People of Color (Yes, Including Children)
3. White People Are More Likely to Have Done Illegal Drugs, But Are Far Less Likely to Go to Jail
4. Black Men Are Sentenced to Far Lengthier Prison Sentences
5. White People (Including Police) See Black Children as Older and Less Innocent
6. Black Children Are More Likely to Be Tried as Adults
7. White People Are More Likely to Support the Criminal Justice System When They Think It’s Disproportionately Punitive Toward Black People
8. The More Stereotypical a Black Defendant Looks in a Murder Case, The Higher the Likelihood He’ll Be Sentenced to Death
9. White People Falsely Recall Black Men They Perceive as ‘Smart’ as Being Lighter-Skinned
10. White People View Lighter-Skinned People of Color as More Intelligent, Competent, Trustworthy, and Reliable
White people do have the upper hand, and this makes me very sad. They use to being treated better than someone else because of their skin color, and many of you feel superior being white, compared to someone who is not white. White people owe more rights and privileges. And the fact that white people are still treated more fairly than those who have a different skin color is really upsetting to me.Â
Why is this still happening in today’s society? It’s 2016, for goodness sake!
