Wrong.

Racism is only a privilege for the majority that benefit from it.  I agree that minorities can be just as racists as white people but they do not control the power and wealth in this country so their racism does not create a privilege for them.

And people who cry "I have never benefited from white privilege" probably have.  They have no way of knowing if they would have been stopped by the police at some time or passed over for a job they got if they had been a minority instead of a white person.

Many scientific studies prove it happens, so none of you can definitely say "I have never benefited".
