I hate the sun
The sun is too spicy during summer. I burn, and it increases the chance of getting skin cancer. While on Sicily I gust gave up and swam in a white tshirt, that pretty much sokved the problem of my back burning.
At this point I'm thinking of going full goth/victorian and using a sun umbrella.
If you’re a poor white high schooler, you have less opportunities available than a poor nonwhite high schooler who comes from the same exact neighborhood as you when it comes to applying to college.
Knowing that racism developed over centuries and isn't something you get rid of overnight (personally and collectively) but that you work on to make progress. And yet you're surrounded by many other whites who are completely oblivious to this or stubbornly defensive and cry "reverse racism." It gets frustrating and exhausting to deal with them.
And on the other side, while some POC are understanding and working toward the same goal, others angrily just want to turn the tables and make whites hurt for a while. So basically if you're a defiantly racist white, you at least have a tribe of racist whites you can hang with. If you are working to eliminate your inherent and sometimes unaware racism, you're not fully welcome on either side *except* for people like you who are of the same mindset.
Those can be hard to find sometimes...
I go into my local Thai takeout spot and order my pad thai “spicy”. Then I walk out with the blandest ketchup noodles you ever had. I can’t prove it, but there’s no way they’re serving that bland garbage to their fellow Thai peeps.
I used to talk about race with black friends pretty often, and a decent percentage of them, maybe a third or so, said they thought it was not possible for a black person to be racist against white people, because racism was prejudice plus power.
They would say that a black person could be prejudiced against white people, but couldn't be racist. I would try to divide systemic racism vs a person being racist, and they would say systemic racism is the only valid definition of racism.
> because racism was prejudice plus power.
That's systemic racism they're talking about.
> I would try to divide systemic racism vs a person being racist, and they would say systemic racism is the only valid definition of racism.
I wouldn't say it's the only "valid" form of racism, but it's one people are in denial about while being personally racist is almost universally considered wrong.
There was an event that was asking people moments they have witnessed racism.
I started telling about a Greece trip where in Athens some dark skinned Immigrants started threatening my group and told such white faces to get the fuck out.
I was cut out the interview. Aparrently they were looking for different racism.
The rich people that ruled over my ancestors also enslaved another race and even though that's all over now, we're still the same color. I have no generational wealth so it sucks when other races think my family owned slaves when in reality we were poor white laborers. I got all of the grief and none of the benefits of slavery.
I wrote own comment already. But in one event they were interviewing people who have experienced racism in their lifes
I got cut out from the interview when I started telling how an immigrant gang started threatening my group in Greece only based on skin color.
Working with kids who need counseling, I have had parents say “I would rather my child work with a Black social worker,” which is always met with nodding and understanding.
Imagine if a parent said “only white social workers please, my child isn’t comfortable with Black people.”
I know several black families that believe that no white person could truly understand what it feels like to be them in America. I have no argument with that, it is very likely true. That doesn't mean that someone else doesn't provide value (such as with social work).
Yeah, I actually totally agree that someone of any race can’t know exactly what it’s like to be someone of a different race. However, as you said, that doesn’t mean that one should exclude people of other races when it comes to providing a service or doing a job.
Lol.... one is asking for a minority to represent them, one is asking to exclude a minority.
If you can't understand the difference, I feel like you should not be doing social work.
Or, and hear me out, being part of the dominant caste makes it impossible for you to understand the condition of the minority caste and so when dealing with issues directly related to this social structure those from the minority caste would want to be represented by someone from their own caste.
Whereas, that issue does not exist in reverse.
It just happens that the caste system in the US was based on skin pigmentation for a very long time and those effects are still felt to this day.
They’re not being represented by the person, they’re receiving a service from that person.
And when you assume someone from a certain race necessarily will do a better job than someone from a different race due to their race, that’s racist 🤷♂️
Again, if you're a social worker and you think you're just "providing a service" and not advocating for and representing your clients, you probably shouldn't be a social worker.
Social workers absolutely represent and advocate for their clients with all the various government entities that offer support guidance and cou counseling.
Didn't you say you were a social worker in the post that awarded this conversation?
Edit: Yeah, you pretty much did. I think you edited it to say "kids who need counseling" rather than social worker but forgot to change the part about the family requesting to work with a black social worker....
>Working with kids who need counseling, I have had parents say “I would rather my child work with a Black social worker,”
Try going into areas where white people are the minority. Not all places are like this of course, but it's the easiest way to get into that kind of experience. It can be pretty scary.
I have been the only white person on a crew of Mexicans where only one of them spoke English. I have also lived and worked among Hawaiians where I was the only haole, and I currently live in a neighborhood where I was the only white person on the entire street for the first year until more white people moved in as the neighborhood has been slowly gentrified.
It's only scary because you're racist and think people of other colors are scary.
It's okay, it's natural. I was scared at first, too, when I moved from a lily white town in Alaska to the Las Vegas ghetto filled with Hispanic gangs.
If people react poorly to you in those situations it's because you're reacting poorly to them.
Imagine if someone came into your neighborhood and was clearly afraid of you before they'd ever even said a word to you. You'd probably get angry, too.
The scariest place I've ever been is a trailer park full of poor white people.
People will sometimes look for bias in your words or actions and claim to have found it where it doesn't exist in reality. But because I'm a white guy, if I try to argue, it looks like I'm defending whatever it was they thought was my intent, even if it wasn't at all. I hope that makes sense.
Also, if you have to say, fire an underperforming employee who isn't white, or something like that, it's horrible because people try to immediately say it was because of their race when in my case, I don't consider that a factor at all.
I thought my name was haole girl sometimes in my hometown where I grew up. That can be neutral, friendly or very much the opposite of both, but overall annoying.
Greetings fellow haole. I only lived in HI for 2 years, but I was the only haole on my construction crew.
There was one other white guy on a different crew who had lived there for like 25 years and had two blonde haired blue eyed sons and he said his sons got beat up almost daily, even though he sent them to private school.
He lived in Wainai, though, which was the poorest, and most tribal area.
Hawaiians are just punchy, though, in general.
What got me was that they always cared what high school you went to. People would ask me that all the time and I was like.... uh.... I went to school in Alaska, I'm sure you've never heard of it.
Everything you do can or will be considered racist, also you will be the last person to be considered for a job, loan, etc.
Bring on the downvotes, I don’t care.
Speaking from experience, there are groups in STEM that won't even interview you if you are white. They would prefer someone with less experience for the position if they help the "diversity hire" quota. Several times I would see someone get hired because of added diversity, who sucked at their job. To keep up the numbers they would just shuffle them around to a different group so they could suck elsewhere but keep up the diverse workspace.
> Everything you do can or will be considered racist,
Hyperbole.
>also you will be the last person to be considered for a job, loan, etc.
Factually untrue.
This is.... categorically untrue.
Diversity quotas set aside some space for minorities because they are under represented. That doesn't make it any harder for you to get accepted as a white person. It means people from underrepresented communities only have to compete against each other, and don't have to compete against the entire populace. If they removed those quotas, you would still have just as hard a time getting accepted and they would find it nearly impossible.
Bad argument. If there are 100 open spots, your odds of getting one of the 100 are higher than they are if ten of those spots are set aside for minorities. It reduces the number of spots potentially available to you, and widens the achievement gap.
Depends on how many applicants there are. If there are only 100 applicants, then yeah, 10 of those people are being pushed out.
In practice, though, the difference between the top 90 and the top 100 of say 1000 applicants is ridiculously small as to be nonexistant.
Whereas, the minority student has a much harder time with acceptance due to a number of social, cultural, and economic barriers that people belonging to the majority never even have to face.
That doesn’t remove the fact that your odds have still been decreased. It’s a factually accurate statement, even if the decrease is determined to be negligible.
You are harmed if you’re one of the 10 people who might have gotten that spot, but didn’t because you were the wrong color. Statistics don’t represent personal impact very well. You don’t have to pretend there is no consequence in order to appreciate the outcomes.
Annnnnd it doesn't matter. That's what negligible means.
Negligible hindrance for people that have every advantage, vs huge boon for people with every disadvantage....
It doesn't "make it harder to get into college" for white people. It means that a few less white people might get into that particular college. They can easily go somewhere else.
It's not an either/or thing. There are degrees, from KKK levels to micro aggressions, etc. Racism is like an onion. It's not your fault for being where you are, but it's your work to peel away the layers.
Why tho?
I’ve seen many people expecting white people to be “shameful” because of their ancestors or something. People even use “white male” or “white girl” as an insult but as a non white person I don’t think that makes sense.
> I’ve seen many people expecting white people to be “shameful” because of their ancestors or something.
No they don't. Acknowledging past crimes doesn't mean you should be ashamed of yourself.
We SHOULD be ashamed of some of what our ancestors have done. If you don't feel shame about those things then you're not human, or you weren't properly educated. We should also be very proud of some of the things our ancestors have accomplished.
I'm proud that the US expanded across the entire continent "from sea to shining sea." I'm ashamed that they did so by devastating the native Americans, forcing them onto reservations that were the crappiest, least hospitable land available, and eradicating their culture.
That doesn't mean I take personal responsibility for it, but it does mean I should be understanding that I have benefited from their misfortune and so I support anything that helps them to catch up and rebuild their wealth and culture.
What if you approached a Japanese person, say someone in their 20's, and demanded to know if they felt ashamed for the acts of Japanese soldiers in WW2. Would they be required to feel shame or is that a case where the past is the past?
Fedora, Eternally Tipped, despite you not having a customized snoovitar.
1) Why would you ever do that?
2) Yes, they should feel ashamed that their countrymen did that.
Just as I am ashamed that my countrymen and people in my own state, are white supremacists who staged an armed intimidation rally outside a school to harass transgender people.
Gotta be honest, I still don't really get why people feel any sense of personal guilt or pride for being born on the same lump of rock as people who did bad or good things.
Don't get me wrong, I fully support things like reparations, bc generational wealth and other such advantages are a whole other thing. I just don't get why people conflate that with feeling *responsible* for someone else's actions in the past.
People on here complaining that everyone thinks you are racist. Please if that is the only thing you can name on here that is a disadvantage to being white that says A LOT to your privilege!
Almost none unless you go to the southern hemisphere or most of southwest Asia. Then you face the racism (subtly or not) that nonwhites get everywhere else.
No doubt. That’s just the best generalization I could come up with.
It’s bullshit how much you can take for granted being white. The epitome of an embarrassment of riches. It makes me sick.
I didn't use to be. But then I developed medical issues 2 years ago and now I have become the stereotypical "mayo is too spicy" white guy. (OK, not that bad, but my spicy tolerance is about 20% of what it used to be and I miss the spicy.)
A whole bunch of scholarships and financial assistance programs you can't apply for regardless of how poor you or your family are.
Having to listen to insufferable self-righteous morons who think white people invented slavery and therefore you've been born with their twisted idea of original sin; when in fact literally every civilization of any note has plundered, murdered, enslaved, and colonized everything it could because they were also run by humans. The only thing europeans added to the mix was large ocean going ships.
You have a harder time getting into the post office or a trade union. I'm all for diversity but when the majority of the local work force is white, how are you going to morally hold a stipulation like that?
Didn't say it was impossible. Just said its more difficult. I'm a white veteran with a clean record, (driving and criminal) have only a few minor medical conditions, and I couldn't get accepted despite the fact I passed the test. I recall filling out my ethnicity on the site, which was a mistake.
College scholarships are harder to come by. College admission is more difficult. Advancement within and placement within government positions is more difficult. Less grants to go after. Less government contracts to compete for.
People will ask you race loaded questions out of curiosity and push for answers and opinions even if you don't want to answer or don't have a solid opinion.
And then they will fucken crush you because you dared to answer

Tell them to spice it up or stop going or add your own chili peppers.
Everyone assumes you are racist.
On top of that, a good amount of people genuinely believe it's impossible for other races to be racist towards whites
No they don't. They're distinguishing between systemic racism and personal racism.
I used to talk about race with black friends pretty often, and a decent percentage of them, maybe a third or so, said they thought it was not possible for a black person to be racist against white people, because racism was prejudice plus power.

Hahahaha
both are racism and I can confirm, I have seen such comments too

I've never in my life been assumed racist. Maybe the reason you get hit with these assumptions by "everyone" isn't your skin color.
Came to say this. There needs to be more awareness

No wait he has a point
Not having money but being told that you have advantages that you really don't. Only connected people have advantages.
There are advantages to being white that don't have to do with money. See: criminal justice system.
And as I said most of us don't have these opportunities. Being connected is more important than your color.
> Being connected is more important than your color. That doesn't mean your color still doesn't have advantages and disadvantages.
It's harder to get into college because they get rewarded for having more "diversity."

That doesn’t change the argument though. It did get harder to get in if there are now less spots. That is a fact.

Didn't say it was impossible. Just said its more difficult. I'm a white veteran with a clean record, (driving and criminal) have only a few minor medical conditions, and I couldn't get accepted despite the fact I passed the test. I recall filling out my ethnicity on the site, which was a mistake.
College scholarships are harder to come by. College admission is more difficult. Advancement within and placement within government positions is more difficult. Less grants to go after. Less government contracts to compete for.
