112. More proof...

I'm white and my wife is African American. It never fails where ever we go (restaurants, shopping, etc.) I am always the one who is acknowledged by everyone while my wife is constantly ignored.

I see it everyday. As a white man, I have privilige and I don't have a problem admitting.

I think some people are afraid of admitting it or realizing it because they think it will take away from all of their "hard work, etc."
