What if people in the back were ball players? :sas2:


Maybe they should've worked harder instead of making excuses and bringing it on themselves.

Right. Besides, the fact that they have the luxury of denying white privilege is proof that they have it. Because if you don't have white privilege, it's dangerous not to acknowledge it. But, we all know people will still have some shyt to say about all of this.
I'm more interested in the counter argument than having them own up to it. You'd have to do some serious mental gymnastics to counter this.

You have to be stupid to think white people don't understand white privilege.

Right. This is just something to keep nikkas sane. Cause have white folks tell it and what ever it is won't be true. They not blind. They see us struggling. When they deny us employment don't think for a second they don't know they have privilege. They saw then Ferguson traffic statistics and how low the crime rate was and ignores that shyt. They know they move into a house and just based off the skin color of the neighborhood, it's worth more. They know. They just don't give a fukk.

Well. They'll probably have a rebuttal like, "Well if other people in the back row were capable of getting it in, why were you incapable of getting it in too? Maybe you should work harder on your aim and you'd have a better chance of getting it in."

Which is craziness, because there's certain vantage points that's going to be extremely difficult in landing no matter how well you practice aiming... which is why a lot of people move.

To all yall waiting for white people to acknowledge their privilege and relinquish it....good luck. You'll be waiting for a long time :troll: Let's think about it in another way. Black people have privilege as well. We don't realize it...but, we do. Just by being born in America, we have the privilege of being in a first world country. Privilege that was gained through the theft of resources from third world countries :mjpls: This is kinda similar to Whites having even further privilege here in America through oppressing Blacks :mjpls: Tomorrow....nikkas all across the nation could wake up and be like....enough's enough...fukk this country....I'm going back to Africa. I'm tired of feeling like a second class citizen. I'm tired of seeing my people get murdered in the street. I'm tired of being discriminated against. Im leaving......We never will though :mjpls: Because the privilege of being in America is worth more to us than being in Africa, around our own people :mjpls: So we'll never give that card up. And we'll never ever ever acknowledge that we benefited (yes blacks too) greatly from all the ills America has done to Africa, and the Middle East and Latin America :mjpls: The same way Black Americans look at White Americans, Non-Americans across the world look at Americans in general :mjpls: White people will never give up their privilege, and they'll continue to refuse it exists, the same way we (Blacks) refuse to believe that we have any. If we (Blacks) want to be on a level playing field in AmeriKKKa, we won't get it singing kumbayaa. We'll have to take it. That means building companies, communities, networks and families.

We built this country. We have no privilege.

The people up front didn't choose the seat selection, maybe the back rows should stop complaining and try and get better seat assignment :troll:

To an African kid living in some burned out village in Tanzania....yes you do have fukkin privilege :stopitslime:

His village is burned out because the West fukked his region up for economic gain. We eating. He starving. Unless you willing to renounce your citizenship, you share that privilege homie :troll: In the same fashion, whites in the USA have even further privilege by hoarding all the resources for themselves and keeping blacks in a perpetual state of poverty, a permanent underclass. They eat. While we starve. See the parallels there....asking whites in America to give up power to minorities....is kinda like asking the USA itself to give up power to the rest of the world...its not gonna happen. You'll be waiting forever :skip: You take power. You don't beg for it.

you try that water is wet shyt trying to explain white privilege to someone born in it. This example is so fukking simple, there's no way they can deny it. I can't wait to use this. :mjcry:

That’s a clever demonstration. However, had the students been thoughtful enough they could have moved (scooted) there seats while still remaining seated. Or even better there was no emphasis on the person staying seated (they just had to shoot while sitting in there seat) therefore, one could have gotten as close as physically possible. Sometimes people are more privileged but in those situations it is what you do to better your chances. What steps can you take to make it just a little more balanced?
