African American

none I disagree with, again, only discussing *tactics*, I remember a quote that " 'White Privilege' *IS* getting to decide what 'white privelege' is. But it's annoying (first world crisis here ) when someone who has understood the issue for 20+ years and just wants to help is told to STFU, you're white, you can't understand".

There was an interesting article askingn white people to *NOT* come to BLM events unless asked. I understand, I know several 'culture vultures' who are more interested in having a selfie at a BLM protest than actually doing shit; as a property owning middle aged middle class white guy I'm not going to insult someone by pretending I can emphasize, even if I've been fucking with the sstem for 40 years.


An interesting duicussional aside; A professor in a class I was taking was taling about 'privilege', and pointed to me, as I'm six foot, in pretty good shape white bald head, as an example of 'large male' privilege". It wa funny (she is a Latina female). And it made me think yeah, as a 195 pound Male I have 'priveleges ("Pribvate Law&quot . Same thing with being white. What drives me left is my dad telling me that his father remembered signs saying "Help Wanted, - no dogs or Irish need apply", so my upbringing was "The only color that matters in America is GREEN

Again, great original article. Very thought provoking.
