I call it majority privilege, because that's what I believe it actually is. You'll likely be met with this type of privilege if you are part of the majority race that harbors whichever region of the world you are in.

If you are in a middle eastern country like saudi arabia, you're probably better off if you're arabian. If you're in an east asian country like japan, you're probably better off being japanese. So on and so forth.

The people around you will most likely be of your race. The people represented in media will most likely be of your race. The people spoken about in local history will most likely be of your race. All of these things are talking points when speaking of white previlege, and all of these things happen in other countires that have a majority race, except probably to greater degree because the majority in some countries are the majority by a much larger percent.

North america is majority white, so obviously, you're going to expereince these very same privileges as other nations with a majority race. White are the majority by around 70%, which isn't as severe as, let's say, japan, where Japanese people occupy the upper 90%.
