Are you conflating the phrase "whites always get favoured" with the notion of "white privilege"?

Are you conflating the phrase "whites always get favoured" with the notion of "white privilege"?
- webXL 11y agoPerhaps. Can you give me a concrete example of "white privilege"?
- uremog 11y agoWatch nearly any episode of the TV show, "What would you do". There are often examples of people giving some* the benefit of the doubt when they are in fact stealing, etc, while others are reported immediately to the police. In the context of this show: * "some" are always white and/or female "others" are some white males, and all non-white males. This "benefit of the doubt" is a privilege.
- powertower 11y ago> This "benefit of the doubt" is a privilege. I've never watched the show, but when one group of people is disproportionately represented in crime statistics, in some cases by a factor of 30x, then it's just common sense rather than benefit-of-the-doubt.
