Is the term "white privilege" a racial slur?

@Guilds

40+ years later, white privilege is still firmly in place

There is no such thing.

@Guilds

African Americans are still waiting for the white moderate to speak up.

Meh. They should speak up for themselves. BLM isn’t the way to do it.

@Guilds

Is it the same to use the term “wealth Privilege”?

Just like the story of the little red hen…all can make bread…if…you’re willing to make the necessary sacrifices. Many choose not to and that’s their choice but…it isn’t the problem of those that did.

@conan

Not hard to figure out now is it?

White privilege.

Wealth privilege.

Which one is racist?

Now that not saying those that uses wealth privilege are resentful…

One is born white, and has ingrained privilege due to historical and social events/norms.

One is born wealthy and has ingrained privileges due to historical and social norms.

White people are not considered inferior, lazy, dishonest, etc…due to their white skin.

Black people have a long history of those assumptions, which sadly, still persist today, although certainly not as bad as the recent past.

Having an ingrained privilege due to historical and systemic norms, is not an insult.
It simply, is.

Wealth offers privilege. That’s kind of a no-brainier.

I don’t need to watch a video titled “pathway to socialism” because socialism had nothing to do with the failure of Yugoslavia it mostly had to do with them killing each-other over their ethnicity.

You don’t even know, how much you don’t know. I recommend you start there.

Dude the socialist lost the last free election in Yugoslavia before the country collapsed into ethnic violence.

Don’t bring up a subject you know nothing about.

Don’t speak about a subject you’ve not made the effort to prepare yourself for. Listen to the video. It isn’t anything about what you assumed it was.

White people have had the freedom and privilege to make bread for 400+ years, whilst black have only recently been given that opportunity…and even then, the playing field is not equal.

The term was created by some mouth breathers to divid the country!

When you play the race card you’re a racist…end of story.

Stop it…

Being a white person offers privilege, That is also a no brainer.

That is hilarious.

@Guilds

Sure, if born wealthy doesn’t matter what color your skin is.

@Guilds

Time to quit assuming.

I don’t need to watch a 15 min video of someone wrongly explaining history.

Truth needs to be spoken and presented.

If one chooses to ignore it, that is them.

MLK was spot on, regarding the white moderate.

Actually, it doesn’t. That you assume so makes you a part of the problem.

Nope, denying reality is part of the problem.

MLK was spot on regarding the white moderate.

[conan]

Or maybe it’s your truth…thus exposing oneself.

Really? I didn’t start until August 17, 1981.

All can wake up in the morning. All can go to school. All can listen to what’s being taught. All can choose to study. All can choose to apply themselves in being educated. All can decide what they’d like to do with their lives to earn a living. All can go to work. All can observe those in this field that are successful and attempt to imitate them. This is the land of opportunity and ALL have that opportunity.

Some have a more difficult time though because one or both parents were nothing but baby makers. When this happens, whose fault is that? If you can be honest, this has more bearing towards success than anything else.
