Of course it's an honest discussion because what our fathers experienced has no impact on our lives today. Our life starts the day we are born.
Most white people didn't experience this white privilege you speak of. My father could tell you stories that would make you cry growing up. They were as poor as dirt. My father joined the US Marines just to see what it was like having three square meals a day. He grew up in a house with no heat or running water. The outhouse was in the backyard and up north in the winter, if you had to go, you really had to go.
My father nor his six siblings never spent a day in jail yet alone prison. My father and all his brothers joined the military and fought in Korea or WWII.
Back to point: what my father experienced had no impact on my life. I went to school like black kids went to school. I had the option to go to college like black kids had the same option. I chose to work with my hands and get into a field of work where I could make a decent living like any black person my age. I made real estate investments instead of having children like any black person could have done.
Now please explain to me how people from other countries can come here with a few bucks in their pocket, work 7 days a week until they saved enough to open up their own business, experience the American dream and blacks in our society can't.
