While at a White Privilege conference, Ami interviews people in an attempt to find out what white privilege is.
Responses include:
"ALL white people have white privilege."
"ALL white people are prejudice and racist."
(such informative answers, right?!.... :s)
When asked, no one could come up with even one response to a white privilege encounter in their daily life.
They continue to respond:
"Black people are consumed with the issue day to day...if you don't admit it, you are blinding yourself."
A white man states that he "extends his white privilege over to his wife" who is black, by placing his hand over her at the train station.
(WTF?!?!)
After all of this emphasis on white privilege from a white perspective, Ami then goes to a dominantly black community to ask their opinion.
Their responses include:
"I've heard of it (white privilege), but I don't think about it."
"No, I'm not consumed with it at all."
"My mom didn't raise me to view color as an object of anything."
These white, liberal elitist ideas, although fair to consider, are so far fetched and extreme. It might help them to maybe speak to other groups of people outside their sheltered cohort of white friends.
Here's the video.
