White people complaining about racism. A black guy speaks up, and says “I’m fine, thanks.” Says that he doesn’t like it when white people tell him that he is oppressed, and asks those reading to imagine what it would be like if men went around rioting and tearing down statues in the name of equality. In response a white person puts up a picture of a sign defining privilege (paraphrasing) “Privilege is when you don’t think something is a problem because it doesn’t affect you personally.” Yes, you read that correctly: a white person accused a black guy of being privileged because he doesn’t feel that racism is a problem in his life. I am not making this up.
Saw that, thanks to a curmudgeonly priest-friend who is all about the Way, the Truth, and the Life….Amen.
