Can anyone give me the goals of getting whites to admit they have "white privilege"? All i've ever seen is "furthering the national conversation on race? What exactly will that do?
It is inherently racist to suggest that all of one groups success comes from it being set up that way, and that all minority failures are due to "privilege".
In Malaysia, the Malays out number the Chinese ten to one, but the Chinese outnumber the Malays 10 to 1 in math and science related degrees. It must be that Chinese privilege
Honestly, asking people to admit to it does little to nothing. It's best to just accept people as people. Race shouldn't even be a conversation, it doesn't matter. Not that we should be blind to it though.
What is attributed to slavery? A study was done on the black family from the times of slavery up until 1925 and the vast majority of black families were two parent families. It is only we within our own time that we have seen a massive jump in black single family households. What can be blamed on slavery that we haven't actually caused in our own time?
It's not that it has to be admitted, it's that it has to be understood. It's nothing to admit to because it's not a conscious effort(In most cases). There are so many other privileges, white privilege is just the most popular because of the race baiting.

"understanding" is admitting, because I'm denying such a thing exists. Saying there is something called white privilege is the very definition of racism.
" the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races"

Denying 'white privilege' :lol. Okay. I'm pretty sure you're the one that argued that if there was white privilege, there was also black privilege right? In that case you'd be entirely right. There's so many privileges in the world, and the fact that you think the world is completely racist free actually surprises me.
When Seattle Seahawks superstar Richard Sherman

in 24 hours of television broadcasts. Sherman, a Standford University graduate, called out his critics, noting that white male aggression is seen as acceptable in sports like hockey because the vast majority of players are white.
Notice the ending. Do you ever hear of a hockey player being called a thug for no reason? That's like Thomas Sowell making a statement against Reagan's Presidency, and conservative news stations call him a thug for his remarks(I used Thomas Sowell because he seems to be someone you depend on when it comes to these racially motivated topics).
These videos aren't to say this has never happened to anyone else, as I'm certain it has happened to hispanics almost just as equally as it happens to blacks. These videos are experiences a large majority of black/hispanic men face. Now think to yourself. When you walk around in an expensive store, do you feel beady eyes on the back of your neck everywhere you turn? Is someone slowly stalking you making sure you don't steal?
The funniest thing is, of my group of friends(1 White male, 2 black males(including myself), 1 Puerto Rican male, and 1 Columbian male), the white male is the one who steals something every time we stop at a convenient store. You'd think I'm exaggerating by putting every time in bold, but I'm not, every time.

I myself invalidate those videos. I'm a 21 year old white male with no tattoos yet i've already been stopped and searched 3 times for "fitting the description" of someone who was breaking into cars as I was walking by my local school(Not all around the same time either once while 17 once at 19, and then at 20). 3 freaking times all by white cops, so save me the whole being profiled is only a black thing.
Part 2 me and 3 other friends were at a fireworks store in South Carolina... 3 white one black. The owner was obviously following us around the store, so me and the black dude and my two other white friends separated to see who he would follow. He followed my two other white friends for the rest of the time we were in the store, but left myself and the black guy.
If you're trying to argue there is a white privilege, and a black privilege then no one really has any privilege as both side has benefits.

Again I never said it was, I stated that it's something a large majority of blacks go through.

What are you even asking here? There is more than just white privilege.
Okay I read that again.
It's because it's something that a large majority of black men go through. It's not something a large majority of white men go through. Just because you individually have been follow or stopped by the cops, doesn't mean your entire race has been.
There are so many things blacks can do that whites can't. It surprises me that you would dispute this as you've made the argument before if I'm not mistaken.
Depends on what type of media. If you're looking for something mainstream, you'll be waiting a while.
