While there are many excellent responses here they all fall short. Blacks will never give up their victim cards. That is what “white privilege” is all about. White privilege is something that can never ever be atoned for (according to blacks). Everything you have, everything you do was only possible because of what was stolen from black people by the white system. It is a perpetual ideology that ensures handouts and special treatment ad infinitum. Pointing out that your family fought in the civil war doesnt even address the 150 yrs since then that blacks believe you and your whole family received unearned privilege.
