Understanding White Privilege & How to Respond When Called Out ✨

White privilege is a concept that was developed and discussed throughout the 20th century. This video focuses on the academic article written by Peggy McIntosh in 1988 White and Male Privilege: A Personal Account of Coming to See Correspondences Through Work in Women’s Studies and her specific except taken from this article (Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack). Examples that McIntosh uses in this article include:<br />-being a credit to her race when stepping up in a challenging situation<br />-using flesh colored bandaids are a fairly close match to her skin color<br />Examples used in this video include:<br />-When someone doesn’t say “hi” to me I do not have to wonder if it is because of my race<br />-I have a full aisle of soap and hair care products to choose from in a big box chain store<br /><br />For a limited time, get 15% off items in my merch shop. https://the-millennial-republican.myspreadshop.com/<br /><br />Chance to win Amazon Gift Card! https://afflat3c1.com/trk/lnk/BF41F68B-B60D-41E2-9527-360546858966/?o=19489&c=918277&a=624942&k=DCA7B466D61EA13ECA50E71411E52C7A&l=20467<br /><br />Here is what you say when they call you for for white privilege: What you call white privilege is what i get for my ancestors actually doing the hard work of setting up this country and ran the infrastructure, and the fact that white people do well economically in this country is because we learn to make good choices that benefit us in the long run, instead of calling out white people you should learn how you can better your self.<br /><br />Enjoy.
