Democratic presidential candidate former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton argued that she is privileged, and âit is hard, when youâre swimming in the ocean to know exactly whatâs happening around youâ when asked about white privilege at Iowa Brown and Black Forum broadcast on Fusion on Monday.
Hillary, in response to a question on what âwhite privilegeâ means to her, and whether she has benefited from it, said âit is hard, when youâre swimming in the ocean to know exactly whatâs happening around you, so much as it is when youâre standing on the shore, perhaps watching.â
Hillary added that she went to good schools, and had a âstrong, supportive families,â and ânever really knew what was or wasnât part of the privilege. I just knew that I was a lucky person.â
She further stated that she realized she was privileged when she was around 11-years-old, and she volunteered to babysit the children of migrant workers.

Yes Hillary, ‘white privelage’ IS like swimming in the ocean; barely keeping your head above water, trying to your pay bills, care for your family while being robbed each payday to pay for the dnc plantation slaves
"The stuff you gotta say if you wanna get elected nowadays! Am I right or am I right?"
After her mother named her for Sir Edmund Hillary.
What?
No pictures of Hildabeast in a bathing suit?
She grew up in Park Ridge IL, which was 100 miles from any migrant workers. This story is rubber.
An ocean? Jeez Hillary, maybe it's time to switch to "Depends".
“hillary has gone full out racist, attacking whites in favor of black and brown pandering exclusively.”
The very same Hillary that said she didn’t even consider the black maids that cleaned the toilets in the Arkansas Gov mansion to be humans.
Poll after poll shows a majority of people believe race relations have deteriorated under BH.
Does Mizz Clinton really believe fomenting further racial divisions is a winning strategery or is this further pandering
There wasnt a dry eye in the house
she wants to start talking about white privilege now? Sweeeet!
Hold on you’all. This is your master ringing your work bell.
That’s what she’s saying.
11 Years old and she was volunteering for migrant children. BS.
Oh please, in 1958 Illinois all ANY 11 year old could talk about was migrant labor. It was THE hot issue of the late 50s in the corn belt./
From UK News online, Today:
She also dodged sniper fire in Bosnia.
She was named after Sir Edmund Hillary.
She found the Rose Law Firm documents on a coffee table.
She thought a Youtube video caused the Benghazi attack.
Yikes! what a weird picture.
I thought “white privilege” was bunk until someone on DU explained in a way that made sense (I’m serious). White children on average have the advantages of
* 2 parents
* parents who read to them at young ages
* parents who care how they do at school
* parents with a work ethic
* ... about 10 other advantages white children have based on parent not skin color
The DU member didn’t talk about Asians or first/second generation “African-Americans” but I agree with regard to a certain set of non-whites. Of course their solution was different than mine. I’d focus on “parents”. They wanted more money for teachers/baby-sitters to perform the role of parent.
Is she saying a WHITE shark would be considered privileged??
An ocean full of Great WHITE Sharks and no Great Black Sharks, right Rodham?
