That's why thousands and thousands of blacks leave racist America everyday and move to places like Haiti, Burundi, Niger and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Places where they won't have to deal with the depressing, suffocating curse of a white population and White Privilege.

I know for a fact that this gave me an advantage over many, many people who were not.
If a disproportionate number of non-white people are raised in single-parent homes, then the author of this slop ought to start looking closely at fixing that problem before suggesting that the term "white privilege" even means anything.
In fact, the problem is `white culture rejection’ and it
remains a phenomenon which still afflicts far too many
African Americans.
These rodents may call it “White Privilege”, I just called him “Dad”
“White privilege” means “pretext for putting Whites at the back of every line”.
And that's just a flat lie.
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.
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 am privileged.
I know God.
LOL, as bad as slavery. she shall overcome...or maybe not
Black reporter has inferiority complex yells racism it works for the stupid ones.
I saw the lines. As if.
“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?
If you are a white person in America, you were born privileged. That’s just a fact.
Your opinion is not fact.
I imagine I’d find it hard to obtain light makeup in certain African nations, where black privilege is rampant.
But as for white privilege and a white’centric America? Welcome to Western Civilization - made up of, shocker, white people - a world minority. If you don’t like it, there is a whole big world out there to choose from.
Any privilege I have comes from God. Take it up with Him.
Does anyone know if there is any longitudinal study that controls for everything except race to determine if there is a statistical difference in outcomes between the races? For instance, if a black child and white child each had parents that were married when the child was born, kept an intact family through that child’s upbringing, were middle class socio-economically, were religious, etc., is there a statistical difference in the “success” of each of those children?
There must be a way to use data to either prove or disprove this notion of “privilege”. Otherwise, everything is anecdotal. I can’t get make-up so there’s white privilege.
Bull shi...er...bull Obama.
Shove it, journalist.
Shove it deep.
Shove it often.
And keep on shoving.
We no longer even pretend to care.
