Answer the following questions based on your understanding of white privilege in society.

  1. What is white privilege?
  2. How does white privilege manifest in everyday life?
  3. Provide an example of how white privilege can lead to systemic or institutional discrimination.

Answers:

  1. White privilege is the inherent advantages and benefits that come with being born into a white race or ethnic group, which gives them an advantage in society over people of color.
  2. White privilege can manifest in everyday life in several ways, such as being able to avoid being followed or suspected while shopping, being given the benefit of the doubt in situations where people of color may be deemed suspicious, and being granted more opportunities for education or job advancement.
  3. An example of how white privilege can lead to systemic or institutional discrimination is demonstrated in the criminal justice system, where people of color are disproportionately incarcerated and given harsher sentences than their white counterparts. This systemic discrimination is perpetuated by the belief that people of color are inherently more criminal and dangerous than white people.
