My great grandma was an Irish princess but I can't prove it, where do I sign up for white privilege?

White privilege is being innocent until proven guilty, whereas minorities are judged to be guilty until proven innocent even if they aren't doing wrong. White privilege means that if you have an indiscretion as a kid, like smoke some pot, you'll just be seen as "boys will be boys". But if a black kid smokes some pot, he's a "thug" and the second coming of Osama Bin Laden.

See Trayvon Martin. White privilege means you don't have to prove that you're one of the "good ones", whereas minorities have to prove they are. White privilege means you are judged as an individual, and not a representative of your entire race.

White privilege is being offended at the shortest month of the year, February, being called "black history month", and saying "I'm not racist, but why isn't there a white history month?" when so many of the other months are months for European histories (April = Scottish, March=Irish, October=German) White privilege is being the default. Etc. Etc.

Etc.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
