Simple Definition of privilege
1
: a right or benefit that is given to some people and not to others
That's a simple definition, if you use the Oxford dictionary or Cambridge dictionary for a full definition it's precisely what I mentioned in the first post.
But you could go off a simple definition and then in my opinion it's still racially bias to focus on white privilege. When many other races have advantages for various reasons that black people don't have.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
