This is a fairly interesting point, and I never thought of it this way, but perhaps this suggests that white privilege is less relevant in the non-privileged.
Think its difficult for you to try and convince anybody that it doesn't exist at all when you started your last post referencing the plentiful inequality in skin colour, but who am I to stop ya trying.

He actually said 'there is plenty of inequality but skin colour isn't a factor in that anymore' NOT that there was plentiful inequality in skin colour. Putting words in peoples' mouths in your haste to undermine their point tends to have the opposite effect.

You missed the context of his post hun, it was in reply to a post about ethnicity. Also look through the first page, you also suggested that white privilege exists. Not too sure what youre doing back here claiming anything else. You love contradicting yourself, you.

I haven't contradicted myself and have clearly agreed that inequality was related to other things not skin colour. It may have been the case in the past but times have changed a lot. There will always be those that will make excuses for their own inaction as no doubt you will do for your continued baiting. I will leave you to it again.

And , I stated everyone has equal opportunity to improve their quality of life in this day and age, if they want to. How was that contradicting myself.

If you misinterpret my words that's your problem.

I would have to say if you are born in a mud hut in Africa you going to find it harder to get into Eton college than someone living in mansion in surry.
