People of color want things handed to them and choose not to work for it. I

White privilege is being able to not fear for your life when you get pulled over, and to not have to worry about just walking down the street.
@9KCDQZ73mos3MO
We're built on white policies that were made to keep people of color down. America has systemic racist issues and white people are handed more that people of color.

Think of life in America as a race, and people of color unfortunately started that race about a hundred years late, and still dealt with extremely unfair environments and opportunities for at least another hundred years. If I race is to be fair, shouldn't it have been so from the beginning? Maybe now on paper they have equal rights, but they haven't had generation after generation accumulating representation, wealth, and power like white people have had since the beginning
@9KCJFWG3mos3MO
there isnt any necessary right that they dont have on paper, however throughout history and currently and can be seen that people of color have a disadvantage in the workplace and just generally in society
@9KCHVZS3mos3MO
It isn't the fact that they don't have rights white people do, it's the fact that POC people are blatantly ignored, treated differently, and harassed day by day by white people due to racism. Socially, they are seen as less by a lot of people who have white privilege, those people not understanding what privilege they have. They do not want things handed to them, they want equality, and for white people to not have the privilege they do.
They don't want things handed to them they just don't want to have to fight to have what comes easier to white people
