Gee, every halfrican I know of on the national stage has chosen to be “black” over the white half (Uhbama, Kaepernick, and Ben Jealous, anyone?). Every halfie I personally know chooses to be embroiled in that culture.
That’s not white privilege.
Clearly there is black privilege.
Cosmetic Company CEO Options:
“American culture itself is white-centric. For example, as an African-American woman, I can rarely find makeup that matches my exact skin tone. Though cosmetics companies have gotten a lot better at adding more diverse colors to their lines, I still most often have to buy two shades and mix them together to get a match”
I hate to tell her this but the same thing happens to white girls but I guess she is so racist she can’t tell shades of pale apart.
This is just so unbelievable.
And regarding this:
For example, as an African-American woman, I can rarely find makeup that matches my exact skin tone.

Well, guess what, honey, this very white woman has the same problem. I guess the manufacturers of cosmetics just hate all of us women, white and black.
I still most often have to buy two shades and mix them together to get a match.

Yes, the horror!
(BTW, I am probably old enough to be this racist’s grandmother, and I have had to do this for years.)
I am privileged.
I know God.
Me neither. If I waited for folks to hand stuff to me, I wouldn't be alive.
LOL, as bad as slavery. she shall overcome...or maybe not
That fact correleates more closely to educational and economic success than skin color. But some people are just science deniers.
Black reporter has inferiority complex yells racism it works for the stupid ones.
Truly a heartbreaking tale of repression.

That's her go-to example? As they say, "First World Problem." Welcome to it, lady!
This is the new Democrat Party - whites aren’t allowed.
They had better get off this shit, it will really backlash on them.
And BTW, how about all those Asians from India, Vietnam and China, who are leading the income tables. White privilege held them back? The reporter writes as if there is a racist reason in America that blacks fail, but some how it just happens to miss Asians who are non-white. The argument doesn’t hold water. Blacks are the masters of their own destiny and they should get off the victim train. Stop blaming others for their own failings and change their own lives.
I saw the lines. As if.
In NY State, the first 30% of state budget money is earmarked for minorities! A huge effin number, that whites need not apply.
This idiot does not know what she is talking about.
“For example, as an African-American woman, I can rarely find makeup that matches my exact skin tone. Though cosmetics companies have gotten a lot better at adding more diverse colors to their lines, I still most often have to buy two shades and mix them together to get a match.”
Oh the humanity. Well at least she doesn’t have to deal with the contradiction of being “high yaller”. I mean what if you are a lighter skinned African American and able to claim a portion of privilege but still cannot find the right makeup shade? How arfel would that be?
White Privilege, is being able to find one of those customized key chains with your first name on it.
... and then give everything you have to someone who isn't white and just go away and die.
Here is a man blacks should look up to, respect and emulate
Instead they call him an "Uncle Tom".
Actually, it is majority privilege. White people here happen to be in the majority in this country and the culture is shaped towards the majority, as is any culture.
In China, there is Chinese privilege. In Russia, there is Russian privilege, etc.
