White people are more likely to get hired because their names sounds white.

White kids are punished less for the same behavior than black kids

White convicts are more likely to get a job than black people without records.

A white person with no college degree is just as like to get hired as a black person with a college degree

All white juries (it’s starts on page 11) are  more likely to convict black criminals than white ones.

Black people are more likely to be stopped and frisked than white people even though they have a higher drug usage than us.

White people (majority of doctors) think that black people feel less pain

Black people get longer sentences than white people

White people use the majority of drugs but black people go to jail longer. This talks more about why our jails and prison are full of black and poor people

White people push for harsher laws when they think it will affect black people

Black people are more likely to get death penalty if their victim is white vs white people if their victims is Black. (Really it applies to all races. Any race that isn’t Black is less likely to get the death penalty if their victim is Black.)

Since this is much longer than the others if you scroll down to figure 5 and read the information about it that’s where this is detailed but the whole thing is a good read.

Reblogging this to here because I can never find examples of white privilege and systematic oppression when I go searching for it in our blog or my personal one.

Please, as a white person, do not let the only emotion you feel be guilt when reading this. White guilt does not help! Pity? Anger? Yes, those are okay but are still markers of privilege. Of observation. Whatever you feel…

Take this information if it is new to you, and let it motivate you to activate. If you see it happening, call it out. In your life, workplace, environment. Document it, end it. Step out of the way, listen, boost voices, and do not ever do it for praise, or conditionally. If a PoC is mean to you, work harder. They’re still angry. They have every reason to be. Let their anger at you motivate you to work harder for justice. They might never not be angry. A bad history is hard to forgive, let it be and try for a better future.

As they say, stay woke. Don’t ignore it. Ignorance is complicit. Don’t allow your freedom to lack of concern be yet another way you exercise your white privilege.

This isn’t some nebulous idea here. This is real people, real lives, kids, parents, people. Being harmed, hurt, killed. That should be motivation enough.

Anyone not married by age 25 gets a spouse assigned to them by the government. You are fine with that: most matches are a success and it’s less effort for you. But it’s your wedding day and you’ve just met your match. You cannot imagine how this was the person they chose for you…..!

… you’re walking down the aisle. It’s dark outside the chapel and your phone is dead. As you approach the altar, you see him- Shia LaBeouf.

WAIT! He isn’t wed, SHIA SURPRISE! There’s a ring in his hand and love in his eyes!
