And nevermind that black have been held down, for lack of a better definition, from 1865 till 1965. Give or take a few years.
I never said to never mind that. I am well aware that the above makes it so that there is a higher percentage of blacks that are poor than there are whites. But at the end of the day, it's not skin color, in and of itself, that makes someone privileged or not. If a black person has a lot of money, was born into a good family and a high social class, that person is privileged. If a white person was born dirt poor and from a broken family, that person is under privileged.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
