    Btw I'm not a troll. Just someone with a different opinion and someone who has actually been victimized cause of my skin color.

    TBH, I don't think anyone's that dense and ignorant to not be a troll.
    :empalm: I would be so disappointed in God

    Pretty sure if a black parent is discussing disadvantages with their kids, they encourage them to work harder because of it. Not give up because its there.

    Well now you're out of school and in the real world where that s--- doesn't matter or happen anymore. I feel sorry that that happened to you, but I wouldn't let that impact an entire race of people for me.

    You don't have to wait, they've been there and you didn't even know it.

    If I let the actions of bullies from middle school represent my world view, I'd be a f---ing moron. Kids are f---ing mean at that age, race regardless.

    Even if you personally experienced none (which I doubt), it doesn't mean white privilege doesn't exist

    People should be able to exist in a world where they can be proud of their race and culture, not victimized for it. Ignoring race isn't a solution.

    Why do you doubt that though?

    I had to earn everything I have; nothing was handed to me

    Because it's literally OUT OF YOUR CONTROL if someone, like a cop, wants to attribute a bias towards you during your interaction with him or her. Just for example.
