A quote from Sharon Begley, Seeing the Truth of Inequality: “We all want to believe that we’ve earned what we have, but true equality begins when we’re willing to see how the circumstances of our birth have helped us along”. (https://www.mindful.org/the-research-on-white-privilege-blindness/) Our society support “whiteness” as a norm, because that’s all America knows white, has always been superior to other races. Going into a store without being racially stereotyped is an example of how society illustrates white privilege. An article from Cory Collins, (2018) states that white privilege is both a legacy and a cause of racism. White privilege exists because of historic, enduring racism and biases. (https://www.learningforjustice.org/magazine/fall-2018/what-is-white-privilege-really) The way we can confront white privilege as a society is we must first stop saying that it don’t exsist because it do. Like Sharon Begley said our birth helped us along this stuck to me because some white people was born privlieged and was taught how to treat other races different and that the white race is superior over all. We have to see the truth in it all and I think that every race should be treated equally but we have a lot of work to do for that to happen. We still have police treating blacks different from whites when it comes to making an arrest. So many black people have been wrongfully killed by the hands of police.
