I can't jump into your skin for even one second @Safety, nor can you jump into my skin.
I believe in this philosophy. For things to change, you must change.

I love the sports analogies. Suppose to make me equal, or make me catch up, or have privilege, LeBron James was forced to turn over half his points to me during his games. (assume i am a white but weaker basketball player)
That would not be fair. His black privilege is why he gets so many points. But he still did not beat my local team, the Warriors.

I'm not trying to make you jump into my skin, nor am I trying to jump into yours. I am simply bring forth a different perspective that may not be obvious to you as it is to me. There are some who look at skin color as a defining measure of whether or not a society is homogenous, and then there are others who say skin color is not the issue, culture is. I'm from the culture camp.

Yeah...
After my trial I am pretty sure white privilege is a myth in the modern day.

Well, it only works when you have others around to compare. How many brothers were in court with you that day?

Do you honestly believe violent white criminals get off with more lenient sentences? In the case of drug offenses, I'm inclined to agree but the basis for that is not race but violence.
Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

No I don't believe white criminals get off with more lenient sentences today, but the movie "life" comes to mind.

It seems clear to me that the racial element with regard disparities in sentences is largely incidental.
