We hear about white privilege, I guess it’s ok to talk about black privilege too?

But definitely true.
Right?
And what exactly does it reveal? That I’m paying attention? You can ask me exactly how I feel. I’m right here. No need to assume. Your current assumption is wrong.
I can go on social media after one of these posts and discover all of a certain segment of the population having a meltdown over yet another perceived hurt and indignity.
Never thought I’d live to see the day that one American political party would use social media like fifth graders to foment hurt feelings and absurdist victimhood.
Honestly, I despise the term white privilege. Because that includes me. And I struggled my a$$ off for years. No privilege in sight. I’m just pushing back a little. In the examples given, it means that race matters. And if you’re looking for work in any of those fields, it’s an advantage to be black. If you are, you’re in high demand.
You’re out of touch. I’ve worked for several multinational corporations. There is no way in hell that being black here is a disadvantage. Zero people in corporate America believe that it is. You need to catch up. This ain’t 1965 and race baiting don’t work no mo.
Not understanding that being black in the professional world is an advantage is a problem that you’re having. Being obsessed with race is a problem that the entire democratic party is having. Normal people are pretty much tired of it.
