RE:”The notion of checking one’s privilege — white, male, cisgendered, and otherwise — has caught on to the point of triggering the inevitable backlash”

Saturday Melissa Harris Perry went on a rant about how whites created those poor crime ridden areas in the city, going back 60 years ago :

1) Segregation laws(60 years ago )
2) Red lining for home loans for blacks, white parents have ‘wealth’ to pass on to kids, blacks don't
3) White flight, whites took that privileged $$$ with them leaving those black areas with nothing

Also Sunday I listened a bit to the local Rush replay, he quoted some British sociologist saying that kids that get bedtime stories read to them have an ‘unfair advantage’ over other kids.

It's your fault for leaving, White devils! It's not like you left because of the crime or anything.

Even if the bedtime stories are about the Crips & Bloods ?
