Archived Black Privilege (whatever)
submitted 1.7 years ago by YamaMaya
If you are non white and/or female you benefit from the following in the west:
You have the privilage of being believed when you say you are innocent or someone else is guilty.
If someone challenges you you have the privilage to pull the discrimination card ie: "because he was black" "because Im a woman"
You have the privilage of unfair advantages due to quota laws and hate crime laws
You have the privilage to have your work automatically praised, and if it is not, see point 2.
You have the privilage of being blissfully unaware of how men and white people hold up society and make it easier for you, out of misplaced guilt which you actively encourage.
You have the privilage to hurl racist and sexist abuse without being called out on it, and if anyone disagrees, see point 2.
If you commit a crime you have the privilage of public sympathy ie: shes a single mum, hes a "gud boi". In the event you dont have someone's support, see point 2.
You have the privilage of implicit support from your race/sex in all facets of life, and deny this luxury to white men.
You have the privilage of being a "protected class", which means when you claim discrimination, you are taken seriously.

Women are not minorities but are still under the umbrella of "protected class" this is code for anything not straight, white, or male.

You're forgetting minority owned businesses.

The list is not exhaustive. Feel free to add on any examples you have encountered that don't already fall under my original points.
