Would you trade places with a black person to attain this supposed privilege? If no, then no it doesn't exist.

OJ Simpson got away with murdering two people because he claimed he was nothing more than the victim of racism because he was black. He convinced jurors that all of the forensic science and DNA evidence proving that he - and only he - was the killer, he really wasn't, and it was all a setup by the racist police.

The Dean of Students at Mizzou was terminated because a black multi-millionaire student claimed that, while off-campus, he thought he heard someone say the n-word. Literally nobody could corroborate that story, and even though literally no member of Mizzou faculty should have been held responsible since no student was found to have done it, and it didn't occur on school property, he claimed it fostered a racist sentiment in the school.

List of prejudices and preconceived biases.


I don't feel privileged to have my skin tone enter the equation when it comes to who I am or might be to a stranger.

1) Black privilege is being able to take pride in your race without fear or persecution.-There are Irish Greek,Italian,ect festivals celebrating this stuff. The reason white pride is look down on is because it literally stated and is used mostly by racist. take it up with the.

2) Black privilege is when people assume you are poor because of racism and not because bad personal choices.-Since when has this happened to black people. Even when pointing out systematic racism that still have an effect on people today. People are all like bootstrapped.

3) Black privilege is being wealthy without people assuming your wealth was handed to you or that you exploited others.-I will come back to this.

4) Black privilege is being able to commit violent crimes against another race without people assuming you're racist.-Black people can be charged with hate crimes.

5) Black privilege is being given Affirmative Action which advances you in jobs or colleges based on your skin color.-Remember number 3, this you can't have it both ways .

6) Black privilege is when you can be overrepresented in certain fields without people trying to amend it.- People try to give people the chance to go into fields were they were long standing barriers . That really hasn't happen for white people in America.

7) Black privilege is having the media cover up your race in the event of a gruesome murder.-Will this just isn't true.

8) Black privilege is having the media ignore Black on black crime while blaming white people for not valuing black lives.-Once more true. Crime is down in most of the US but the reporting of crime is up.

9) Black privilege is having media ignore problems in your community to protect you from criticism.-So media not being racist is Black Privilege?

10) Black privilege is being able to blame being pulled over because the officer's racism. There have been studies on Driving while Black.

11) Black privilege is being able to blame any of your shortcomings or failures on racism.-This is 2 rehashed.

4 of your list talked about criminals.
2 of them countdirctied each other.
2 of them were the same just worded differently .

Something tells me that the group that was enslaved for 250 years and held under 100 years of legalized segregation after that and largely systematically repressed from obtaining upward mobility to gain wealth does not have the same power dynamic in this picture as white people.
