when a 16 year old girl sees an officer arrest some of color WITHOUT looking in to the details of what and why this is happening and calls racist.
And the officer can't do shit because the 16 year old will call rape(that might have went a little far...)

The fact that white people may be at an advantage simply due to their skin colour than a non-white person with the same intellect, qualifications etc. It is worth noting that this is not a justification for the racism against white people collectively, but rather highlights that existence of a systematic, institutionalised racial hierarchy that is able to deprive non-white people from seizing opportunities that they rightfully deserve simply because of their complexion. White privilege does not mean that it is acceptable to hate white people, nor that white people must apologise for any achievements of theirs, nor that all non-whites deserve opportunities primarily before white people (this would be an example of racial privilege against whites).
"Brock Turner, who was arrested for rape, was released from prison after six months because of his good behaviour and the negative implications that a lengthier prison sentence would have on him as a young student."
"Don't other rapists normally get a longer, fairer sentence for the same crime?"
"Well... yes."
"MATE.... That's white privilege!"

An invisible package of unearned assets that whites can count on cashing in each day, but about which they are 'meant' to remain oblivious. White privilege is like an invisible weightless knapsack of special provisions, maps, passports, codebooks, visas, clothes, tools , and blank checks.
Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack of white privilege:
-I can if I wish arrange to be in the company of people of my race most of the time.
-I can turn on the television or open to the front page of the paper and see people of my race widely represented.
-When I am told about our national heritage or about "civilization," I am shown that people of my color made it what it is.
-I am never asked to speak for all the people of my racial group.
-I can remain oblivious of the language and customs of persons of color who constitute the world's majority without feeling in my culture any penalty for such oblivion.
-I can easily find academic courses and institutions which give attention only to people of my race.
-I can chose blemish cover or bandages in "flesh" color and have them more or less match my skin.

White privilege refers to the concrete benefits of access to resources and social rewards and the power to shape the norms and values of society that whites receive, unconsciously or consciously, by virtue of their skin color in a racist society.
Examples of white privilege noted by Tim Wise:
Studies have found that...
-Job applicants with white sounding names are 50% more likely to receive a call-back for a job interview than applicants with black-sounding names, even when all job-related qualifications and credentials are the same.
-White men with a criminal record are more likely to get a call-back for an interview than black male job applicants who don't have one, even when all requisite qualifications, demeanor and communication styles are the same.
-White women are far more likely than black women to be hired for work through temporary agencies, even when the black women have more experience and are more qualified.
-There are about two million cases of race-based discrimination against people of color every year in the United States. That's not just bad for folks of color; the flipside is that there are, as a result, millions more places I can live as a white person.
-Although data...indicates that whites are equally or more likely than blacks or Latinos to use drugs, it is people of color (blacks and Latinos mostly) who comprise about 90 percent of the persons incarcerated for a drug possession offense.
-Despite the fact that white men are more likely to be caught with drugs in our car (on those occasions when we are searched), black men remain about four times more likely than white men to be searched in the first place.

Texas realtor Jenna Ryan told CBS11 in Dallas she deserves a full pardon by Donald "Agent Orange" Trump after she was arrested and charged by the FBI during a national roundup of numerous insurrectionists. Example: I will be okay cause Daddy Trump will pardon me using my white privilege card.

A group of white men and women who continue to succeed in life and were most likely enrolled in prestigious schools and colleges due to the wealth and social status of their rich, white parents. These people usually have milky white skin, bright white teeth and drive new cars or trucks. Most have never worked a physical job (it's beneath them) nor have they ever been pulled over by the police (if they have been, for something like drunk driving, their records will usually be exonerated or wiped clean by their rich parents) Their interests include hiking in the mountains, kayaking, attending college and professional football and baseball games, drinking heavily in high-end bars or restaurants, and most have traveled abroad.
Religious views are usually Lutheran and Evangelical.
The most popular city that they end up moving to at some point is Denver, Colorado.

"Hey Joe, did you catch the closing ceremonies from the Winter Olympics last night? And did you notice that all the American athletes had blonde hair and blue eyes? What's that all about?"
