White privilege is reduced sentencing for white people, as compared to people of colour and things like that.<p>My personal opinion is not that you should bring yourself down and suffer for people of colour, but just know that you have benefited from these little effects throughout your entire life. As Warren Buffet said, these &quot;snowball&quot; into a pretty comfortable life.<p>I was a 17 year old non-white guy, minding my own business, and I was detained for matching a description. Who? Why? Nope, just matching a description. I was in the system now. Every time I have to deal with the system, I fight to make sure there are no traces. And every few years, I have to do so. Meanwhile, my white friends who work in the financial industry transport drugs across state lines and never have any issues, even if they are pulled over. I know, because I travelled with them once and I was the only one who was questioned for any length of time.<p>What the actual fuck?<p>I mean, it was a nice trip, but seriously? I don&#x27;t even know where to buy drugs.<p>This is what life is like for someone who isn&#x27;t white. Over and over, day in and day out. It honestly gets really tiring.<p>I&#x27;m not complaining, it just makes my success that much sweeter.
