"just as violent" as they claim we are as Black People, the moment they felt as though myself or any other Blacks were IMPEDING THEM.
But when confronted with THE FACT THAT, lashing out isn't going to gain them anything. Just about ALL OF THEM SHUTDOWN. They couldn't cope. Couldn't function. Became despondent and ultimately curled into either a physical or psychological fetal-position and laid there and stayed there.
Again, like I've typed before, nobody wants to be shown that their so-called accomplishments. Had VERY LITTLE TO DO WITH ANY SKILL ON THEIR PART. Even Gary Webb famously said that he thought he was this great INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER. Till he walked into;
With that said, HERE IS THE ARTICLE, and for me? I don't waste my time proving White Privilege, because I don't need to. Because of the massive changes in technology and such, many Whites are finding out the hard way and on their own that it exists and when they cannot cash-in, they turn into the Dylan Roof's of the world. My task, is to spend MY ENERGY, TEACHING MY OWN PEOPLE TO NOT GET FRUSTRATED AND DISCOURAGED. By working TOGETHER, FINDING LIKE-MINDED BLACK-PEOPLE IN YOUR AREA AND ONLINE? NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE TO OVERCOME AND ACHIEVE TANGIBLE, REAL WORLD RESULTS;
White people reject claims of white privilege, study finds
White people are quick to cite personal hardships instead of acknowledging that they are privileged because of their skin color, according to a new study.
Stanford University’s L. Taylor Phillips and Brian S. Lowery, writing in November’s Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, split test subjects into two groups — with one given more evidence of white privilege in American culture.
Those given more information about privilege cited greater examples of personal hardship than the control group, according to the researchers.
“Whites may claim increased hardships to maintain not only a positive sense of self, but also the material benefits associated with racial privilege. Whites’ claims of hardship might also serve to legitimize the racial advantages they enjoy, and thereby justify a system that benefits their group,” the researchers wrote.
Citing personal struggles helped test subjects acknowledge white privilege — while rationalizing that they’re not directly gaining from it, the study said.
As a remedy, the researchers suggest “privilege reduction efforts” focus on convincing or educating advantaged group members about privilege, and also on “reducing the feelings of self-threat this information induces.”
