A man with White skin who wears their pants below their butt and mutilated with trashtoos look more suspicious than a man with Black skin who is clean-cut.
Kevin G I was thinking the same thing. He could very well have Mediterranean roots (Italian, Greek, etc.). He's certainly not Scandinavian white, that's for sure!
Hairline looks like letter “M” “M” reminds me of McDonalds McDonalds reminds me of chicken nuggets Chicken nuggets reminds me of fried chicken Fried chicken reminds me of black people Black people remind me of suspicious stuff This guys hairline is defiantly suspicious 💯
Ashley jg. Yes. This is exactly why white privilege doesn’t exists. Everyone knows if they see a white kid being bullied there first thought joke or not is that he’s gonna shoot up the school. Even ones who are not.
magnetothewhite y’all are so ignorant man. i’m white, but on multiple occasions i’ve seen my friends targeted and racially profiled just for being black. it could be something as simple as going into a store and getting followed, or walking down the street and having the police trail behind us. all of these have happened to me and my friends. but if i were to walk with my white friends nobody would even think twice about it. that is privilege. and i hate how y’all can just say this shit doesn’t exist, when you’ve never had any experience with it. how can u completely deny it when u have nothing to base to your opinion on. wake the fuck up💯
But you reep benefits off the blood sweat and tears of these other minorities that your ancestors fucked over in a system that is designed for your own kind to succeed
Even if the past 6 guys that robbed him were black, it's not as though being black is what caused them to rob him. If you're not stopping because someone is black, that's racism or racial profiling. You're literally judging them because of the colour of their skin. So it's racism.
@@boyswillbeboyz5589 So it's acceptable for people to racially profile if they had been robbed by people of that ethnicity? Does that also mean that it's acceptable to refuse them service because of ethnicity due to a bad history with one person of that colour? And refuse them employment? That's fine too I guess. Refuse them from entering certain areas? Well if someone of that ethnicity robbed me, I guess it's perfectly fine if I block everyone of that ethnicity from going over there. Refuse them their rights and freedoms? Yep. Of course. One of them robbed me, it's only natural that all of them have their rights and freedoms revoked. Put them back in slavery? Well they were asking for it. They robbed me! What shitty logic. I don't give a damn whether he's afraid or not. Taxi driving is a risky business, if he doesn't want to pick people up and act like a professional then he should get a different job. But not picking up people because of the colour of their skin is absolute nonsense. So what if he got robbed by a black person before? It's not like every black person is going to rob him. What if a white person robbed him? Is he going to refuse white and black people? If he keeps that up, soon he's going to be out of a job anyway since he'll be too afraid to pick anyone up. The dude should stop being such a pussy and man the fuck up. I'll say it to that taxi driver as many times as he needs. What he's doing is not reasonable to any degree. It's racial profiling. It's racial discrimination. It's wrong. If he's a racist? Fair enough. Each to their own. I won't stop him from telling the world, it's none of my business. He has the right to say whatever he wants. But if he stops serving people because of the colour of their skin, that's a problem. It's also illegal as per the anti-discrimination laws in the US which overrides the right to refuse service.
What do you mean? 90% of the world worship whites. Go to Latin America, Asia, Middle East, or even Asia with the exception of North Korean. White people get the best treatment over there. So yes, white privilege does exist in other countries.
"Whites will never be profiled". I grew up in Toronto, Ontario, a relatively urban environment and the most diverse city on the planet. I grew up listening to hip hop and wore extremely baggy clothes. And I have been profiled by police and store owners more times than I could count. Just walking down the street was reason enough for police to pull me over, tell me to put my hands on the hood of the car, get frisked and questioned. This has even resulted in me being beaten by police badly enough for me to require hospitalization for no just reason, with no crime committed and no charges ever being pressed. Back when I dressed like that, when I entered a store, I would often be followed around, or at least closely watched. I have also been robbed walking through primarily black neighborhoods, mostly because I was a "white boy" as well. So I can safely say from my own experience, race isn't the only factor in profiling, nor are white people the only race that profiles others. As another commenter mentioned, if a black man in a suit with a pleasant demeanor approached a white women, MOST of the time, she would not be intimidated by him. If he was dressed like a gangster, she most likely would be. How you present yourself is as much if not more of a factor than race is. I'm not saying race isn't a factor at all, but if you feel you are being discriminated against, there are things you can do to change your image. I have since changed the way I dress myself, trading in my 4 sizes too big jeans for something more fitted, my long-tees in for a nice button up, my airforce 1s for black leather shoes, and my baggy parka's and hoodies for a peacoat, and I have since seemed to have garnered more respect from the random people I encounter. The mentality is also a factor. Back then, I felt like a thug, acted like a thug, dressed like a thug, and so was treated like, you guessed it, a thug. Changing your mentality is the single biggest thing you can do to combat the way people perceive you.
I was once followed around a store while shopping for a a pair of leather gloves. I knew I was being followed because once I suspected it I would move from 1 area to another and sure enough the employee kept moving to some spot where they could see me. I was dressed in a pair of dress pants with a tucked in dress shirt that hard the top button undone. Had on a nice pair of dress shoes. There were other people in the store too yet I was the one they were keeping an eye on. This has happened many time no mater what I'm wearing. I have been stopped by the police many times asking me what I'm doing and where I'm going. While I was in college the police would stop me while I was waiting for the bus and ask me the same questions and what's in my backpack even though there were other people waiting too.
Hit the nail on the head. It's not skin color, it's presentation! And this guy in CNN talking about "never being asked to pay for his before sitting down" because he has white privilege. That's BS. I've worked in restaurants and have friends of color. Never ever heard that one. It's a myth these days. Worst thing u can be now is an older, straight, Christian, white male.
I’m white, I’ve been harassed by cops my whole life. They pull their guns out on me & my friends when we’re in groups. I got tackled by a cop and choked out after he chased me for 20 min when I was 15 because he couldn’t catch me but his partner did. When I was already sitting on the curb he body slammed me and put all his weight on my back and made me blackout. I get stared at when I go to liquor stores and markets. Do black people think this stuff doesn’t happen to white people? It does it’s just not a news story when it does🤷🏻♂️
We are talking about statistics here. Just because you’re a particular person who faced a particular problem with a particular cop doesn’t mean that whites as a whole get the same treatment as black people as a whole.
@S M more white people than u think get harassed and shot by cops all the time. I've delt with the same treatment growing and still to this day I get the stares and people following me around the store.
You can be wealthy and be racially profiled. This whole “wealth” thing gets brought up by everyone discussing this, even here when the stuff he was talking about has nothing to do with wealth. White privilege isn’t about wealth
teXas N8 it’s about the fact that a black person can get shot for just being black, which not only leads into racism, but also to the fact that police have far to much power to shoot someone just because they are a bit scared of someone when they are the one with a gun to someone’s head. Many black people have died just for this reason alone.
teXas N8 What i’m trying to get across is this is not only a race problem across North America, more specifically America, is that the police have been giving themselves the ‘right’ to kill not only innocent black people/poc, but also innocent white people as well. I’m only pointing out the fact that Black people get wrongfully killed, in-prisoned, and arrested way more then they should for only making up less then 15% of the population in America. This also leading to the fact that it can also happen to white people, who may i add only make about more the half percent of the population, can also get wrongfully killed and arrested as well. This racial issue has stemmed from white people, it it’s evolved to give people who have a certain title (police) more power just based on feelings alone. I feel like you should be agreeing with the corrupt police system by the argument you’ve given as white people also die wrongfully in police hands as well.
I've been "educating" myself over racial profiling of Black people. If Black men feel profiled because they are wearing hoodies why don't they just dress a little better? Why are they claiming White privilege when they are clearly dressing like criminals. Sorry, but here in the UK Black people don't all live in Ghettos or wear hoodies. This issue has been exported to the UK through Black Lives Matter and people are laughing at it.
White privilege WAS, absolutely, ONCE a thing, and there are, of course, still residual effects of that, but, as things sit, the current status of societal law is color blind. I have no privilege that a black person my age doesn't, generally speaking, the same opportunities exist. Now, of course, some people are born to richer and better educated parents, which affords more opportunities based on their ability to pay for them, but that includes blacks as well as every other race in existence in the United States. I'm sorry, but it's intellectually bankrupt to argue this based on race, because it doesn't hold true across the entire color band. I'm not better off nor do I have any more inherent privilege than the children of Jesse Jackson, or Michael Jordan, both rich black men. I am better off and have more privilege than all people born into, and raised up through, poverty. This includes poor white people, though, proof of the failure of your theory. Seriously, it's not that hard to see, it has nothing to do with color, today, and everything to do with socioeconomical positioning. It's like that Dr. Seuss illustration... Some Hoos are Doos and some Doos are Boos and some Boos are Hoos... Something like that. It's designed to show, simplified, that there's no way to generalize with any competence. Everyone is an individual with their own unique sets of advantages and disadvantages. We can't choose how we're born, to whom, or in what circumstance, but we can choose to utilize the tools and opportunities around us and afforded to us all, to become whatever we want to be. For some that road will be more difficult, based on their own unique disadvantages, but, in current climate, through social standards provided for all (aka laws), there are no racially based hurdles. And the best thing about how color blind and truly just things are in today's America is that when we do find someone who abuses any position of power to commit or enact racial disparities, we use those righteous laws to punish them. More proof of how flawed this voluntary victim thinking is. And I don't care what some blacks have to say because others say the exact opposite. So called "lived experiences" are very rarely more than skewed perceptions based on subjective views steeped in generations of false indoctrination and conditioning. People see what they want to see. I'm not invested in not feeling guilt, I just don't care, thus I see through the critical lense of objectivity. This voluntary victimhood climate we've cultivated is the only true barrier and problem we have. It needs to end, it is the last true issue in society, and it's perpetuated and propagated by an unintellectual, disingenuous and unnecessary guilt for crimes of the past.
Very well said. Actual thought seemed to be put into this, which I unfortunately don't see as often in arguments explaining that white privilege exists "because it does." It's a kind of circular reasoning that ignores the lack of actual legislation or any other factors working against minority groups.
@@nathanousey6823 couldn't agree more. Circular reasoning, mob mentality, and echo chambers are the cause of cognitive dissonance. Excellent observation my friend!
White privelige doesnt exist, black privelige does however, e.g. if you argue with a black person then all they have to do is scream "he called me the n word" and you are already in prison.
I'm white, I've never been given anything for free, I've been profiled as a shoplifter many times though I've never stolen anything, I've been denied jobs because I didn't speak Spanish, I've been denied service because the clerk's didn't understand me, I've also been bullied because I was one of the only white kids in a public school class. I'm now 10 years into a trade with no college because I couldn't afford it and I make a good living on nobody's back but my own. Is it fair to treat me differently for being white? P. S. - My girlfriend is black and I love her very much.
white people like this guy are making the difference in modern day racism ... instead of avoiding the subject and acting like racism is not a factor he admits there is racism and the two men professionally agree on it and both strive to end racism in the u.s... essentially
White privilege does exist and the majority of people that deny it are whit, just because you had experience racism doesn’t mean you aren’t privilege are we going to ignore the advantage that white people have? Are we going to ignore our history? Since time white people have privilege and still have. For an example of white privilege: Having the majority of the police favoring you The advantage of being richer than most minorities because it has been proven that the majority wealth that a person has is by heritage and income and that’s when systemic racism goes in play Majority of movies and books are in favor of you Etc. You need to acknowledge your privilege for the good but that doesn’t mean that just because you have privilege it could be used as a racist tool or to bring you down
DeOnn Norton where do I collect this white privileged at? Like I’m broke right now . I yelled at the Domino’s pizza guy last night said my pizza was cold so I could get a free pizza to eat today . Is that white Privileged? If I was black they probably would’ve called the cops on me
He's Jewish not white. They like to play whatever side they benefit on. That's why they've been kicked out of 200 countries throughout history. They're doing the same thing by inciting hate between blacks and whites like in the media now. Yeah and that hairline isn't fooling anyone.
This is crap, they look suspicious because they look like thugs. If this dude looked like a thug, people would treat him differently. Color of skin doesn’t matter anymore, it’s all about how you present yourself.
racial profiling wouldnt be necesarry if black males would behave and speak in a way that u automatically lose all doubts that he is a consciousful person like the black spokesman here. These kind of people are especially selected to work in the mass media to show an ideal role behavior, its done the same way in the middle east were the women speaker never wear hijab in order to get rid of cultural differences. This kind of a behaviour is unversally human thx but its not patended by white people
Just a few months ago I was walking to the bathroom at a high school band competition...I have a phone case on my belt, I was walking with a hoodie cause it was cold and I don't have hair...I guess I looked suspicious cause some old white dude yelled out I had a gun -_- Then he looked really stupid when everyone saw a phone but I bet if we where alone he would have called the police or tackled me smh Its funny how he saw only the color of my skin and the "gun" but not the school bus driver badge around my neck which was clearly visible
Louis Ruffin its funny how I've never seen this in real life, never seen a video, recording or any proof, only heard stories and only experienced black people being racist even though I was the only white family on my street growing up... work that one out
THE PO SHOW i was at a hotel in richmond hill Georgia looking for something in the car. A (fill in the blank) scream hey what are you doing in that car? I jumped looked around and realized oh wait he's talking to me. Maga. Lol
I don’t clinch my Purse because iofskin color ....I clinch it when anyone is around I don’t know and these little white meth heads running around make me more nervous than anyone !
Steve W yeah. It is truly great to hear that the success you dedicated your life to achieving was all because the system favors you, and that you should feel bad because lazy and/or self centered people are not getting the same outcome as you.
Ngl if i saw these dude be all weird around me i would definitely call the cops for fuck sakes i move on the other side of the street whenever i see suspicious looking guys no matter of their color
Yes, but it would not be the reality of life. Life is not about ideal images and perfect people. It's about diversity; it's about good and bad. It's about a juxtaposition of variables.
Yup look like a thug get stopped by the cops. That's reality. Black people are so quick to jump the race card. Look outside the box Jesus Christ. You're a human being not just a black person. Not everything is about fucking racist.
I’m sorry but what the fuck is that guy’s hairline he looks suspicious as fuck. Edit:Just realize that the second most popular comment said this in the first one said that he looks suspicious this world is too full of brilliant minds
I dont know what this dude is talking about. He looks suspicious af and sketchy and I would definitely avoid him on the street. As a woman, men like him creep me out and we'd watch the other way on the street. Lol
People say that everything I have is due to my race. Everything I achieve in my life isn't because I worked hard, it's because I'm white. Is that not racist? People say that I'm better off because I'm white, not because my parents worked hard to put their children in a place to succeed. My mother was a LEGAL immigrant from Europe. She earned her way into this country, found love, and stayed in a country that she truly loved. How does she have privilege? My father grew up in a small town, joined the military, and worked his way up the ranks, doing what he could to give everything he had to his family and country. How does he have privilege? It makes no sense to me that even if I work hard to get into my college of choice, minorities still have the priority for scholarships just for the color of their skin, not their qualifications. This is the problem with "white privilege".
I just laugh when people bring up slavery as part of the "white privilege" argument. The word slave comes from SLAV which were the first slaves. Guess what their skin color was and who sold/bought them?
It's funny because this whole thing started because black people are crying oppression hahaha... And claiming white people have prvilage hahaha you couldn't be more fucking stupid
Brandon Definitely not as stupid as you!! Don't know if there is any stupid left on the shelf after you stocked up!!!! Next time say something that reflects a bit of intelligence!!
I’m half blk/Cuban ...so I’m black... I say that to say this... When I was in school I learned an intense detailed description of events about the Holocaust..and all of us ...my predominantly black classmates and I were here for it... we were completely engaged when reading the DIARY of ANNE FRANK...til this day I say that was a great depiction of that particular time But not ever did we go into great detail about SLAVERY... NEVER!! never did we discuss the horrific culture of hate that ...yes ..AMERICA MAINTAINED for hundreds and hundreds of years.... but what we all are wanting from White AMERICA is not their sympathy but their ownership of what occurred...their willingness to teach to our children what we were.... because then our children will be able to comprehend what we are NOW .... and with that there has to be and open dialogue of how the slaves were freed... What type of HATE those Slaves received by being place in Horrible environments like swamp like land and literally starting from NOTHING WITH NOTHING and NOTHING to look forward to...imagine 🤔 and these places were referred to as what we in AMERICA call “THE GHETTO” and just ask yourselves what Particular race resides in majority of “THE GHETTOS” in AMERICA? Exactly!!! Now let’s talk about it .............
As a white man.. I have been followed in a store because someone figured I was suspicious. I don't feel safe walking on the streets at night alone, never have known that privilege. I have never had a job that pays more than a woman or some other color of skin for an equal skill level, and if I did I would have quit because I believe through and through our equality regardless of gender or ethnicity. I know more then a few white men who have had the police called because they looked suspicious. This doesn't prove that white privilege doesnt exist, but it does show that there are some of us that wont accept being treated any different just because I am white.
In 1969,I drove a Road runner SPEED MACHINE! It was fast,looked faster. When I drove that muscle machine, it seemed I was pulled over as soon as I left my driveway. I am 75% white, 25 % Native American. I look white.My close friend Walter Royster, a black man drove a truck. He was not pulled over like I was. Every one of my friends who drove a muscle car, we were pulled over by cops on a weekly basis. Also followed a lot, like for mile or more by a marked unit. Was I , being profiled, or was it the car.And all the sobriety field tests.My dad was a cop too. He said dump that car. When I enlisted ,I did. It was Fast and loud,that car was. I a white man was profiled, it happens.
It’s so funny how they act like fear of black people is unjustified. It’s pretty fair to be extra careful around a group that poses more of a threat to you.
It's funny that this guest says he has never been profiled or had anything happen to him because he is white and has white privilege, which is hilariously ironic because he looks Puerto Rican xD
"I can walk in the street in NY City and no taxi will pass me by, I can walk down the street and no woman will grab their purse in fear of me, I can walk into a restaurant and no one will ask me to pay before I eat I can walk through my neighborhood and no one will call 911 saying I look suspicious" Only a Sith deals in absolutes
This guy thinks he'll never look suspicious because of his white skin huh...not even with baggy jeans and a hoodie? How does anybody know that you're white if you're wearing baggy jeans and a hoodie? Everybody looks suspicious wearing baggy jeans and a hoodie, why do you think that stuff went out of style right after the Trayvon Martin case? Now it's skinny jeans and tight v neck shirts 2 sizes too small
who forces these kids to get in gangs? who forces these kids to drop out of high school? who forces these kids to get pregnant before getting married? who forces these kids to get in the criminal justice system? who forces you to not take care of your community?
"I will never look suspicious to anyone regardless of what I'm wearing because of my skin color". Look Mike I get that you are trying to do the right thing but let's be real about it.I'm sure there are lot's of situations where you would look suspicious to someone else-regardless of skin color,yours or theirs.
Agreed, I am a white teenage GIRL. Recently when my friends and I were walking around the mall in a group and laughing and goofing around, a black security cop came up to us & told us to keep is cool and not start any trouble. Another time a Latino retail worker followed me around in a store, I didn't know why he was following me, but then I realized it was probably because I was carrying a backpack. Everyone gets profiled, but people like to pretend that it only happens to certain groups.
People are offended by the term white privilege. I was brought up as were 99.9 % of all Americans that all men were created equal. Most white people have lived from pay check to pay check their entire life. If we commit a crime we get arrested. If we apply for a loan our color is not a factor. If we apply for a job our color is not a factor. America has come to equal oppertunity for all races. You are confussing something long gone for "Wealthy Elite Privilege". These people can be any color. They use the poor like pawns for political gain. Even to the point of destruction. WE ARE ALL AMERICANS AND UNITED WE MUST STAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amen, Amen & Amen!!!! I'm Black and Dominican in my twenties. My people instead of us being angry at the gentleman, insulting him, being frustrated with him, as if he is the one who gives racist cops, guns, and badges to kill our people... We should give the man credit... Most white ppl would not have strong enough balls to stand up, & say this out out loud, better yet on camera. Yes what he is saying does hurt us as Brown people, it sounds extremely unfair, but the man should be RESPECTED for telling us how majority, NOT ALL, but majority of White ppl really feel instead of being fake as hell & sugarcoating shit for us like we are stupid. The first step of fixing ANY problem, or issue is to acknowledge that it exists. The man have given us the ingredients on how, we can help ourselves, and some of my people are complaining, and insulting him????? Come on now... Never make a decision, or a speech when you are furious.
I am ashamed of my own lack of ability to empathize. When I could finally grasp the idea of white privilege, it was because I could relate it to the way I feel being a woman sometimes. "You should not look so attractive if you do not want to be harassed by your boss" is EXACTLY the same as "you shouldnt look so suspicious if you don't want cops to harass you". Gosh I hope the humanbspecies evolves soon to something more pleasant
My great grandfather didn't pass us wealth on by being white...he survived four battles in the worst war in history and came home worked his ass to the tail bone living on the bare necessities and saving up, I swear to you he was 12 hours away from dying behind a push mower with a paint brush in his back pocket..always worked up to the day of his death
If I were to see these two men in a room and I had to befriend one and call the police on the other, I would befriend the guy on the left. The guy on the right looks shady as fuck.
Skolnik is no blue blood no matter what he claims. He looks like a low bred thug. As a taxi driver, I would never stop to pick him up. With decorum and civil comportment comes great privilege.
MMAFighter, for future reference, please do not use acronyms or initials. Do not automatically assume that people will know what you are talking about. Thank-you sir.
Hi, I'm french (I specify for my bad orthography) and I have a way to show for sure to people who think in the way of "white privileges" that they are wrong. Ask them : "Does this mean that the day black peolpe will be in majority in the USA, they will be privilegied and will have to apologize ?" Two possibles answers : 1) Yes --> So the person systematically think that race who is dominant in society is privilegied, and to stop these privileges, his goal is naturally that races become in equal percentage in society --> That's directly discriminant towards the race in majority in the society, which is asked to stop doing babies or to do with other races --> racist 2) No --> So when white are in majority, they are privilegied and need to apologize, but when blacks are in majority they aren't privilegied and don't need to apologize --> racist Conclusion : people who affirm white privileges do exist have a racist thinking without wanting it, please expose this to them and show them the absurdity of what they're saying. Thank you.
Salut gros, désolée mais il y a une couille dans ton message. Selon moi, le white privilege existe et si tu me posais la question dont tu parle ci dessus je te dirais que non, ils ne devrait pas s'excusez, tout comme les blancs n'ont pas a s'excuser aujourd'hui. Admettre que l'on est privilégé n'est pas égual a s'excuser, ça me semble évident. Je suis d'accord qu'il y a des dérives toxiques, qui laisse penser qu'il faut se sentir coupable d'être blanc et qu'il faut s'excuse, et ça c'est du bullshit, mais je le dit au début, c'est juste des dérives et non pas le corps du mouvement ou de la pensée. En revanche ne pas admettre qu'en tant que personne blanche, on n'a pas à faire face a certains probleme que les personnes de couleurs on a faire face, c'est simplement ignorant.
Ha y d'autres français ici ptdr, et ba nickel. Oui en fait ma réthorique est pétée ici, on peut facilement contourner ma question qui est censée démenteler ce concept de white privileges, et tu en as bien montré la faille bien vu. Cependant, il est faux de d'affirmer que les blancs sont privilégiés simplement parce qu'ils sont majortitaires. Et justement, réfuter l'existence de ces whites privileges n'est pas de l'ignorance mais du bon sens, c'est un concept victimaire qui ne rend absolument pas service aux noirs (puisque s'en est quand même l'objectif de base) mais alimente les tensions entre blancs et noirs et divise la société plutôt que de la rassembler. Tout comme il n'y a pas de racisme systémique, les blancs ne sont pas privilégiés parce qu'ils sont en surnombre, et ce n'est pas quelques exemples de meurtres de noirs par la police qui enflamme la population des US en jouant sur leurs émotions qui va modifier la réalité statistique par exemple : images.app.goo.gl/Fa5BdYLq4n6vzHrT6 Ces concepts fallacieux (white privileges, patriarcat, appropriation culturelle...) gangrènent la société et n'ont pour unique cible que le vilain mâle blanc privilégié qui est responsable de tout, domine les noirs et les femmes, les opprimés. C'est une vision biaisée de la réalité, vue sous un prisme BLM totalement abusif, et il est grand tant que cette mascarade s'arrête et qu'on se concentre sur les sujets sérieux.
Corentin Delobel suisse, pas française ;) j'ai checké le lien et vraiment c'est pas pertinent. ça représente les meutres en général, sans aucun context. Le mouvement black lives matter protestent contre les brutalités policières contre les noirs. Et bien qu'il est effectivement plus de meutres de blancs par la police que de noirs (je parle des usa la, les autres pays je sais pas, mais puisque le mouvement blm est né aux usa cela me semble pertinent) , ça s'explique simplement par le faite qu'aux usa il y a une plus grande population de blanc que de noirs. En revanche, si on regarde le nombre de noirs tué par les flics propotionellement au pourcentage de population noirs, c'est largement dispropotioner par rapport au blanc. Désolée si je m'exprime mal mais je te laisse checker ici www.statista.com/chart/21857/people-killed-in-police-shootings-in-the-us/ Pour ce qui est du white privilege, selon moi si tu crois au racisme, tu crois au privilege, c'est juste deux côté de la même pièce. Si tu n'est pas victime de racisme, c'est un privilege point barre.
Actually, the guy on the right (the white guy) does look suspicious, and the guy on the left doesn’t.
If I saw the guy on the right I would be much more suspicious of him then the guy on the left.

That white guy looks suspicious.

magnetothewhite y’all are so ignorant man. i’m white, but on multiple occasions i’ve seen my friends targeted and racially profiled just for being black. it could be something as simple as going into a store and getting followed, or walking down the street and having the police trail behind us. all of these have happened to me and my friends. but if i were to walk with my white friends nobody would even think twice about it. that is privilege. and i hate how y’all can just say this shit doesn’t exist, when you’ve never had any experience with it. how can u completely deny it when u have nothing to base to your opinion on. wake the fuck up💯

It couldn’t possibly be because the taxi cab driver knows the last 6 guys to rob him were black
Even if the past 6 guys that robbed him were black, it's not as though being black is what caused them to rob him. If you're not stopping because someone is black, that's racism or racial profiling. You're literally judging them because of the colour of their skin. So it's racism.
@@bakersmileyface
Say that to the taxi driver
Because they do exist
And we are human beings we all have fears which are unreasonable
@@boyswillbeboyz5589 So it's acceptable for people to racially profile if they had been robbed by people of that ethnicity?
Does that also mean that it's acceptable to refuse them service because of ethnicity due to a bad history with one person of that colour?
And refuse them employment? That's fine too I guess.
Refuse them from entering certain areas? Well if someone of that ethnicity robbed me, I guess it's perfectly fine if I block everyone of that ethnicity from going over there.
Refuse them their rights and freedoms?
Yep. Of course. One of them robbed me, it's only natural that all of them have their rights and freedoms revoked.
Put them back in slavery?
Well they were asking for it. They robbed me!
What shitty logic.
I don't give a damn whether he's afraid or not. Taxi driving is a risky business, if he doesn't want to pick people up and act like a professional then he should get a different job.
But not picking up people because of the colour of their skin is absolute nonsense. So what if he got robbed by a black person before? It's not like every black person is going to rob him.
What if a white person robbed him? Is he going to refuse white and black people?
If he keeps that up, soon he's going to be out of a job anyway since he'll be too afraid to pick anyone up.
The dude should stop being such a pussy and man the fuck up. I'll say it to that taxi driver as many times as he needs.
What he's doing is not reasonable to any degree. It's racial profiling. It's racial discrimination. It's wrong.
If he's a racist? Fair enough. Each to their own. I won't stop him from telling the world, it's none of my business. He has the right to say whatever he wants.
But if he stops serving people because of the colour of their skin, that's a problem. It's also illegal as per the anti-discrimination laws in the US which overrides the right to refuse service.

"Whites will never be profiled". I grew up in Toronto, Ontario, a relatively urban environment and the most diverse city on the planet. I grew up listening to hip hop and wore extremely baggy clothes. And I have been profiled by police and store owners more times than I could count. Just walking down the street was reason enough for police to pull me over, tell me to put my hands on the hood of the car, get frisked and questioned. This has even resulted in me being beaten by police badly enough for me to require hospitalization for no just reason, with no crime committed and no charges ever being pressed. Back when I dressed like that, when I entered a store, I would often be followed around, or at least closely watched. I have also been robbed walking through primarily black neighborhoods, mostly because I was a "white boy" as well. So I can safely say from my own experience, race isn't the only factor in profiling, nor are white people the only race that profiles others. As another commenter mentioned, if a black man in a suit with a pleasant demeanor approached a white women, MOST of the time, she would not be intimidated by him. If he was dressed like a gangster, she most likely would be. How you present yourself is as much if not more of a factor than race is. I'm not saying race isn't a factor at all, but if you feel you are being discriminated against, there are things you can do to change your image. I have since changed the way I dress myself, trading in my 4 sizes too big jeans for something more fitted, my long-tees in for a nice button up, my airforce 1s for black leather shoes, and my baggy parka's and hoodies for a peacoat, and I have since seemed to have garnered more respect from the random people I encounter. The mentality is also a factor. Back then, I felt like a thug, acted like a thug, dressed like a thug, and so was treated like, you guessed it, a thug. Changing your mentality is the single biggest thing you can do to combat the way people perceive you.
LOL, didn't read.
Good for you. I am sorry that you never learned how to read. Why did you feel the need to comment though?
dave watson LOL, DIDN"T READ!!!!!!
I was once followed around a store while shopping for a a pair of leather gloves. I knew I was being followed because once I suspected it I would move from 1 area to another and sure enough the employee kept moving to some spot where they could see me. I was dressed in a pair of dress pants with a tucked in dress shirt that hard the top button undone. Had on a nice pair of dress shoes. There were other people in the store too yet I was the one they were keeping an eye on. This has happened many time no mater what I'm wearing.
I have been stopped by the police many times asking me what I'm doing and where I'm going. While I was in college the police would stop me while I was waiting for the bus and ask me the same questions and what's in my backpack even though there were other people waiting too.
Hit the nail on the head. It's not skin color, it's presentation! And this guy in CNN talking about "never being asked to pay for his before sitting down" because he has white privilege. That's BS. I've worked in restaurants and have friends of color. Never ever heard that one. It's a myth these days. Worst thing u can be now is an older, straight, Christian, white male.

@@Mark-xw5yt what is it about then?
teXas N8 it’s about the fact that a black person can get shot for just being black, which not only leads into racism, but also to the fact that police have far to much power to shoot someone just because they are a bit scared of someone when they are the one with a gun to someone’s head. Many black people have died just for this reason alone.
@@careybeary7766 more white people have been killed by the police than black people. "White privilege" by your definition is not real then
teXas N8 What i’m trying to get across is this is not only a race problem across North America, more specifically America, is that the police have been giving themselves the ‘right’ to kill not only innocent black people/poc, but also innocent white people as well. I’m only pointing out the fact that Black people get wrongfully killed, in-prisoned, and arrested way more then they should for only making up less then 15% of the population in America. This also leading to the fact that it can also happen to white people, who may i add only make about more the half percent of the population, can also get wrongfully killed and arrested as well. This racial issue has stemmed from white people, it it’s evolved to give people who have a certain title (police) more power just based on feelings alone. I feel like you should be agreeing with the corrupt police system by the argument you’ve given as white people also die wrongfully in police hands as well.

Shut the fuck up
I've been "educating" myself over racial profiling of Black people. If Black men feel profiled because they are wearing hoodies why don't they just dress a little better? Why are they claiming White privilege when they are clearly dressing like criminals. Sorry, but here in the UK Black people don't all live in Ghettos or wear hoodies. This issue has been exported to the UK through Black Lives Matter and people are laughing at it.
White privilege WAS, absolutely, ONCE a thing, and there are, of course, still residual effects of that, but, as things sit, the current status of societal law is color blind. I have no privilege that a black person my age doesn't, generally speaking, the same opportunities exist.
Now, of course, some people are born to richer and better educated parents, which affords more opportunities based on their ability to pay for them, but that includes blacks as well as every other race in existence in the United States.
I'm sorry, but it's intellectually bankrupt to argue this based on race, because it doesn't hold true across the entire color band. I'm not better off nor do I have any more inherent privilege than the children of Jesse Jackson, or Michael Jordan, both rich black men. I am better off and have more privilege than all people born into, and raised up through, poverty. This includes poor white people, though, proof of the failure of your theory. Seriously, it's not that hard to see, it has nothing to do with color, today, and everything to do with socioeconomical positioning. It's like that Dr. Seuss illustration... Some Hoos are Doos and some Doos are Boos and some Boos are Hoos... Something like that. It's designed to show, simplified, that there's no way to generalize with any competence. Everyone is an individual with their own unique sets of advantages and disadvantages. We can't choose how we're born, to whom, or in what circumstance, but we can choose to utilize the tools and opportunities around us and afforded to us all, to become whatever we want to be. For some that road will be more difficult, based on their own unique disadvantages, but, in current climate, through social standards provided for all (aka laws), there are no racially based hurdles. And the best thing about how color blind and truly just things are in today's America is that when we do find someone who abuses any position of power to commit or enact racial disparities, we use those righteous laws to punish them. More proof of how flawed this voluntary victim thinking is.
And I don't care what some blacks have to say because others say the exact opposite. So called "lived experiences" are very rarely more than skewed perceptions based on subjective views steeped in generations of false indoctrination and conditioning. People see what they want to see. I'm not invested in not feeling guilt, I just don't care, thus I see through the critical lense of objectivity. This voluntary victimhood climate we've cultivated is the only true barrier and problem we have. It needs to end, it is the last true issue in society, and it's perpetuated and propagated by an unintellectual, disingenuous and unnecessary guilt for crimes of the past.

White privilege does exist and the majority of people that deny it are whit, just because you had experience racism doesn’t mean you aren’t privilege are we going to ignore the advantage that white people have? Are we going to ignore our history? Since time white people have privilege and still have. For an example of white privilege:
Having the majority of the police favoring you
The advantage of being richer than most minorities because it has been proven that the majority wealth that a person has is by heritage and income and that’s when systemic racism goes in play
Majority of movies and books are in favor of you
Etc. You need to acknowledge your privilege for the good but that doesn’t mean that just because you have privilege it could be used as a racist tool or to bring you down

She earned her way into this country, found love, and stayed in a country that she truly loved. How does she have privilege? My father grew up in a small town, joined the military, and worked his way up the ranks, doing what he could to give everything he had to his family and country. How does he have privilege? It makes no sense to me that even if I work hard to get into my college of choice, minorities still have the priority for scholarships just for the color of their skin, not their qualifications.

But not ever did we go into great detail about SLAVERY... NEVER!! never did we discuss the horrific culture of hate that ...yes ..AMERICA MAINTAINED for hundreds and hundreds of years....
but what we all are wanting from White AMERICA is not their sympathy but their ownership of what occurred...their willingness to teach to our children what we were.... because then our children will be able to comprehend what we are NOW ....
and with that there has to be and open dialogue of how the slaves were freed...
What type of HATE those Slaves received by being place in Horrible environments like swamp like land and literally starting from NOTHING WITH NOTHING and NOTHING to look forward to...imagine 🤔

As a white man.. I have been followed in a store because someone figured I was suspicious. I don't feel safe walking on the streets at night alone, never have known that privilege. I have never had a job that pays more than a woman or some other color of skin for an equal skill level, and if I did I would have quit because I believe through and through our equality regardless of gender or ethnicity. I know more then a few white men who have had the police called because they looked suspicious. This doesn't prove that white privilege doesnt exist, but it does show that there are some of us that wont accept being treated any different just because I am white.

Every one of my friends who drove a muscle car, we were pulled over by cops on a weekly basis. Also followed a lot, like for mile or more by a marked unit. Was I , being profiled, or was it the car.And all the sobriety field tests.My dad was a cop too. He said dump that car. When I enlisted ,I did. It was Fast and loud,that car was.

Agreed, I am a white teenage GIRL. Recently when my friends and I were walking around the mall in a group and laughing and goofing around, a black security cop came up to us & told us to keep is cool and not start any trouble. Another time a Latino retail worker followed me around in a store, I didn't know why he was following me, but then I realized it was probably because I was carrying a backpack. Everyone gets profiled, but people like to pretend that it only happens to certain groups.
I don't even know why I bothered checking. Every. Single. Time.
People are offended by the term white privilege. I was brought up as were 99.9 % of all Americans that all men were created equal. Most white people have lived from pay check to pay check their entire life. If we commit a crime we get arrested. If we apply for a loan our color is not a factor. If we apply for a job our color is not a factor. America has come to equal oppertunity for all races. You are confussing something long gone for "Wealthy Elite Privilege". These people can be any color. They use the poor like pawns for political gain. Even to the point of destruction. WE ARE ALL AMERICANS AND UNITED WE MUST STAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You were brought up in the wrong places , that s not America , all the opposite you just wrote
Everyone knows who the racists in this country are...but...nobody can say it, because that would be racist.
Maybe it would be better understood or maybe more relatable if instead of calling it 'white privilege' we describe it as 'white reputation'.
He doesn't look white he's mixed
Amen, Amen & Amen!!!! I'm Black and Dominican in my twenties. My people instead of us being angry at the gentleman, insulting him, being frustrated with him, as if he is the one who gives racist cops, guns, and badges to kill our people... We should give the man credit... Most white ppl would not have strong enough balls to stand up, & say this out out loud, better yet on camera. Yes what he is saying does hurt us as Brown people, it sounds extremely unfair, but the man should be RESPECTED for telling us how majority, NOT ALL, but majority of White ppl really feel instead of being fake as hell & sugarcoating shit for us like we are stupid. The first step of fixing ANY problem, or issue is to acknowledge that it exists. The man have given us the ingredients on how, we can help ourselves, and some of my people are complaining, and insulting him????? Come on now... Never make a decision, or a speech when you are furious.
I am ashamed of my own lack of ability to empathize. When I could finally grasp the idea of white privilege, it was because I could relate it to the way I feel being a woman sometimes. "You should not look so attractive if you do not want to be harassed by your boss" is EXACTLY the same as "you shouldnt look so suspicious if you don't want cops to harass you". Gosh I hope the humanbspecies evolves soon to something more pleasant
Has nothing to do with race. It has everything to do with culture.
I've profiled SO many white dudes based off of what they wear and how they walk and act.
My great grandfather didn't pass us wealth on by being white...he survived four battles in the worst war in history and came home worked his ass to the tail bone living on the bare necessities and saving up, I swear to you he was 12 hours away from dying behind a push mower with a paint brush in his back pocket..always worked up to the day of his death
Total bull shit I had the cops called on me for walking down the street and I was stopped 5 times just for walking
If I were to see these two men in a room and I had to befriend one and call the police on the other, I would befriend the guy on the left.
The guy on the right looks shady as fuck.
Skolnik is no blue blood no matter what he claims. He looks like a low bred thug. As a taxi driver, I would never stop to pick him up. With decorum and civil comportment comes great privilege.
MICHAEL NAILED IT WITHIN FIRST 1 MINUTE !!!!
Why are blacks saying we are invisible? When it gets dark i cant see them
Like it or not, the facts are the facts. Every robbery in GZ neighborhood was committed by a black man or kid. That's why GZ suspected TM .

Privilege is Jessie Smollett
well am from Zambia and our vice president is white and we love it. Guess we dn't see colour.
I'm moving there. Fuck the US. All that matters is skin color here.
i'm white and i have had the cops called on me for looking suspicious..
Who tf asks black people to pre pay. I’ve never seen that before
Hi, I'm french (I specify for my bad orthography) and I have a way to show for sure to people who think in the way of "white privileges" that they are wrong. Ask them : "Does this mean that the day black peolpe will be in majority in the USA, they will be privilegied and will have to apologize ?"
Two possibles answers :
1) Yes --> So the person systematically think that race who is dominant in society is privilegied, and to stop these privileges, his goal is naturally that races become in equal percentage in society --> That's directly discriminant towards the race in majority in the society, which is asked to stop doing babies or to do with other races --> racist
2) No --> So when white are in majority, they are privilegied and need to apologize, but when blacks are in majority they aren't privilegied and don't need to apologize --> racist
Conclusion : people who affirm white privileges do exist have a racist thinking without wanting it, please expose this to them and show them the absurdity of what they're saying. Thank you.
Salut gros, désolée mais il y a une couille dans ton message. Selon moi, le white privilege existe et si tu me posais la question dont tu parle ci dessus je te dirais que non, ils ne devrait pas s'excusez, tout comme les blancs n'ont pas a s'excuser aujourd'hui. Admettre que l'on est privilégé n'est pas égual a s'excuser, ça me semble évident. Je suis d'accord qu'il y a des dérives toxiques, qui laisse penser qu'il faut se sentir coupable d'être blanc et qu'il faut s'excuse, et ça c'est du bullshit, mais je le dit au début, c'est juste des dérives et non pas le corps du mouvement ou de la pensée. En revanche ne pas admettre qu'en tant que personne blanche, on n'a pas à faire face a certains probleme que les personnes de couleurs on a faire face, c'est simplement ignorant.
Ha y d'autres français ici ptdr, et ba nickel. Oui en fait ma réthorique est pétée ici, on peut facilement contourner ma question qui est censée démenteler ce concept de white privileges, et tu en as bien montré la faille bien vu. Cependant, il est faux de d'affirmer que les blancs sont privilégiés simplement parce qu'ils sont majortitaires. Et justement, réfuter l'existence de ces whites privileges n'est pas de l'ignorance mais du bon sens, c'est un concept victimaire qui ne rend absolument pas service aux noirs (puisque s'en est quand même l'objectif de base) mais alimente les tensions entre blancs et noirs et divise la société plutôt que de la rassembler. Tout comme il n'y a pas de racisme systémique, les blancs ne sont pas privilégiés parce qu'ils sont en surnombre, et ce n'est pas quelques exemples de meurtres de noirs par la police qui enflamme la population des US en jouant sur leurs émotions qui va modifier la réalité statistique par exemple : images.app.goo.gl/Fa5BdYLq4n6vzHrT6
Ces concepts fallacieux (white privileges, patriarcat, appropriation culturelle...) gangrènent la société et n'ont pour unique cible que le vilain mâle blanc privilégié qui est responsable de tout, domine les noirs et les femmes, les opprimés. C'est une vision biaisée de la réalité, vue sous un prisme BLM totalement abusif, et il est grand tant que cette mascarade s'arrête et qu'on se concentre sur les sujets sérieux.
Corentin Delobel suisse, pas française ;) j'ai checké le lien et vraiment c'est pas pertinent. ça représente les meutres en général, sans aucun context. Le mouvement black lives matter protestent contre les brutalités policières contre les noirs. Et bien qu'il est effectivement plus de meutres de blancs par la police que de noirs (je parle des usa la, les autres pays je sais pas, mais puisque le mouvement blm est né aux usa cela me semble pertinent) , ça s'explique simplement par le faite qu'aux usa il y a une plus grande population de blanc que de noirs. En revanche, si on regarde le nombre de noirs tué par les flics propotionellement au pourcentage de population noirs, c'est largement dispropotioner par rapport au blanc. Désolée si je m'exprime mal mais je te laisse checker ici www.statista.com/chart/21857/people-killed-in-police-shootings-in-the-us/ Pour ce qui est du white privilege, selon moi si tu crois au racisme, tu crois au privilege, c'est juste deux côté de la même pièce. Si tu n'est pas victime de racisme, c'est un privilege point barre.
