No,I haven't either in all my 75 years of being white. Don't know what color I was when I was just a twinkle in my father's eye, but when I came out I was white, so white I sunburn rather than tan, guess that means I am ultra white, scary isn't it?
I was considered poor as a child. (although I didn't know it) I never got anything for free. I've had to fight and work harder than the other guy for every job I've ever had. I had to pay for college out of my own pocket until I was drafted right out of school. My white privilege didn't keep me from getting drafted? So far I haven't seen any privilege just for being white.When does my white privilege start kicking in? Hopefully soon before I DIE.
