To me, there is privilege anytime someone favors another based upon the color of their skin....and isn't that kinda the definition of racism? If a black person favors another black person simply based upon skin color rather than merit, then that person has been extended black privilege. Same for all types of privilege. When in reality, it's simply racism.

No the definition of racism is a majority race using prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

Minorities can't argue their race is superior because quite frankly there just isn't enough of them to use that to hold the Majority race down. Black people can not like white people, I'm sure there are those that don't, but they have no control to disenfranchise a majority race. However the majority race, if they don't like a minority race can. Which is why black people can't be racist. They can just not like White people, but a minority race would never be able to enslave a majority race, establish Jim Crow laws, commit a holocaust against the majority race etc.

I think people misuse the term racism. But a minority race can never be racist to a majority race.
