Do I benefit from white privilege ?

Question

My Great Grandmother was white

Answer 1

no, because you personally dont count as white

Edit: I'm lookin at your picture rite now and you do NOT look white at all

Answer 2

what's white privilege??

Answer 3

probably not.

are YOU white? that's what matters. if you are more dark than white, then the answer is probably, no.

Answer 4

pitiful. thats all ican say

Answer 5

Probably not. I'm white and I seem to be missing out on some of the benefits it seems. Many white people treat other white people as 2nd class citizens. This is evident in cultures that have or had a well established class or social system.

edit:

Even people on the Titanic where denied lifeboats becuase they were in a lower socio-economic class yet they were white. The rich whites got first dib, not the poor whites That's just one example, however.

Answer 6

if she got a job, husband, or whatever because of her skin colour then in a sense you might benefit from it via history.

maybe you benefit from having lighter skin, because some people treat lighter skinned blacks better. i wouldn't classify it as *white* privilege, but it seems similar to me (coming from a cracker)

Answer 7

White privilege is a myth.

Answer 8

If that is your picture, I say you are ugly and benefit from nothing.

Answer 9

Are you serious? lol

Answer 10

There are some white trash out there.

They don't have white privilege.

Answer 11

I don't know if you benefit from it or not. Your grandmother's ethnicity is irrelevant.
