Amaechi on white privilege

Wasn't sure which thread to add this to, but it's good food for thought, seems like a good description.

Well, it's political, so probably the political thread.

I would have recommended either the favorite tweets thread, or the terrible jokes thread.

What part of the video do you not agree with?

I didn't agree with the lighting. The right side of the video (his left side) seems much brighter than the other side. Amateur production work, honestly.

I hear all sorts of diff definitions. Usually based on the bias of the person trying to define it. I think being a white male affords you more opportunity and less obstacles than any other race gender combo. What you do with those opportunities is up to you though. That to me is white privilege. I can’t quote stats or links or really much any objective measure as proof. Just my observation of my time here.

You pretty much summed it up.
