The establishment lays the foundation for the future, and it is only human nature to create an environment that works to one’s favor.

With that said, there are also instances of Asian, Latino and black privilege. Though not as vast or lucrative, and often stemming from racist stereotypes, black privileges are proof that negativity can work in your favor. Here’s how:

    Blacks have over 50 countries in the world, Blacks have the largest population in the world, Blacks have the best piece of farmland in the world (Africa), Blacks control 50% of the worlds resources, Blacks live in America as a minority with special treatment by the law when white Americans are a TINY minority in the world. And now we even gave you the presidency, not much else we can do for Blacks and what have Blacks done with all this? Nothing. This farce will be coming to a close fast, your day of reckoning will come soon.

    I just stumbled across this article while doing some research on American privilege. This is poorly written and completely inaccurate. When discussing privilege, each point that is brought up must equally highlight the advantage of belonging to one race and the disadvantage of belonging to another. This article is simply an opinionated list of supposed advantages that black people have. Is this a joke? I’m surprised that the editor(s) of this website allow this to remain posted.
