(1) I see what you're saying about how whites are privileged and have more power than people of other ethnicity's' do, and it disgusts me to know that it is like that in 2014. I'm white, I realize my privileges, yet I still can't get over the fact on how much I wish it wasn't this way. I don't want it to be a world of "which-race-is-better-than-the-other." I don't want my black friends to be pulled over because of their pigment, and I don't want the cop to give a bullshit excuse! (cont.)
What people don't realize is that we are undergoing a massive civil rights movement. What WHITE people do not realize is that someday it might.. correction.. it WILL bite us back in the ass. Kind of like how it is right now, but on a larger scale. Being white, I feel ashamed of the undeserved privileges that my race has. I feel ashamed being "above" others in an economic standpoint (based on statistics). And I feel ashamed to be apart of a race that has such little empathy for another person judged by the COLOR OF THEIR SKIN (not to mention gender, sexuality, religion, etc.) I like what you do here. You give valid facts on how blacks are still oppressed and that whites are %98 the problem rather than being one of those people who say they know what they're talking about but have done no research (or rather have never experienced inequality first hand themselves). I understand I'll never experience what you or anyone else goes through, but I'll try my best to understand and do my best to support the end of the wicked ways that are racism. I've had too many of my black friends get falsely accused of things, judged, pulled over, wrongfully accused by racist judges.. the list goes on. All because of skin tone. I could go on more but I've said so much already (lol). In short thank you!! With all words truthful, Svperglow
