Well so far I haven’t been shot by any cops that I’ve interacted with, have not been discriminated against in employment, nor been questioned as to my presence in any building. But if you want to feel guilty, go ahead, it’s a free country. My dad came to this country with $6 in his pocket and did quite well.
Almost sounds insulting though, kinda smacks of telling minorities who succeed "oh, you did so good despite your obvious disadvantages. " Like that scene from Star Trek (2009) with the Vulcans giving Spock shit for having a human mother.
So because you have not experienced those things, all non white people have? No.
As a white male I know I have privilege and use it to help those that don’t. When I see someone of color being shit on by people in power, like cops, or other people who think they’re above them, I step up in and say something at minimum.
