What I don't like about the term "white privilege" is that it is used only in connotation to one other race, the Black folks. The Black people make up roughly 12% of the American population, or about 1/8. For example, I've never seen a Latino or Asian on television, complaining about "White privilege".
Certainly, but the percentages aren't close to being representative. You also need to look at the roles minorities fill.
