    Clutch them pearls.

    Anyone reading this. Make friends with black immigrants, specifically black women and then let’s talk about privilege.

        Clutch dem pearls harder.

        Are you really going to tell everyone here a black poor person is equal to a white one?

        Really? That’s the hill you’re going to die on?

          No, I’m telling you your belief is racist and ignorant, because of your assumption a black skin inherently makes one ‘worse off’ than white skin.

          I’m someone who grew up in a poor mixed race community. But please tell me more about how my real life experience is wrong? I certainly get that a lot, especially whenever I’m around wealthy and privileged people.

          What’s funny is when I meet other people who grew up the way I did… they tend to be not dogmatic and way less racist/sexist, compared to the rich white/black folks. And the Asians… just don’t care about any of that shit.
