That is a long excuse. In the effort it took to formulate that excuse and defend it, you could have actually been doing something to move black Americans forward. Instead you wallow in self pity.
I really want to see this white based system rigging going on, because It seems to have missed me.
So your retort is that its an excuse? Thats amusing. White privilege could only be an excuse if only Black people that were failing saw it. Here you have 2 white guys that see it. Are you going to debate the OP or are you going to say my comments are an excuse? If you can only say its an excuse thats just an admission you cant mount a coherent argument to the point. If you have achieved any success in life you were a beneficiary of this rigging of the system. Just because you chose to not give it any validity only proves you must be embarrassed or you are a failure.
Case in point. Here we have a white supervisor controlling employment.
Supervisor to black worker: Stay away from 'whites only' fountain - CNN.com
How did this white guy become the supervisor?
That is one of the dumbest statements out there. For it to be true some black person would have had to have been denied something i received somewhere along the way solely because I was white, and he/she was black. I can patently tell you this is not the case. In fact I was hindered in college once BECAUSE i was a white male. My father had been laid off and two scholarships were available based on need, however one was for women, and one was for minorities. Where was my "white guy" benefit then?
and the proper question for the second story if for you, point out how the supervisor got his job SOLELY because he is white.
Thats one of weakest excuses in the book. Your one off story of woe does not explain the economic disparity between the races. Dont blame you and your ancestors lack of effort on you missing out on a scholarship and claiming it was because it went to a minority or a woman. Stop whining. Just admit your ancestors did not work hard enough when they were able to take advantage of white AA and make something of themselves like a lot of whites did. When your race in general is denied the ability to succeed due to slavery and jim crow come talk to me.
