| 51. 'Just like the blacks'? Methinks not... |
|
the statistics think not too. Thing is, if you take a black guy and a white guy who earn the same, live in similar neighbourhoods and behave similarly, one of them is going to get extra shit for his skin colour and the other ain't. And that extra shit that the white guy don't get is indeed called being priviledged relative to the black guy
