Martin Luther King, Jr. was a great man — but he wrote more than his “I Have a Dream” speech. Few white folks quote his “Letter from a Birmingham Jail” to talk about King’s Legacy:
“I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice.

When I go to the beach...
On one hand, I attempt to protect my white are by slathering on SPF tartar sauce.
On the other hand, I am consciously trying to "get some color"
So, in the first case, I accept the reality of my skin.
But, in the latter, it seems as though I'm denying reality.
Perhaps I oughta adopt cultural markers, you know, to be more convincing:
- wear my ball cap backwards
- use variants of English like "aks"(ask) or "wif" (with)
- have my dentist outfit me wif a grill
- allow my trousers to ride real low
Would this help?

The best way to reject white privilege is to treat niggers in a special way;
If you are cutting in line in traffic, find a nigger and get in front of them.
When inside an elevator, look down at your phone when you see a nigger approaching instead of holding the door.
When you get stuck with a nigger waiter, give him the special "low limit card" (in case he steals the number), then tip like a nigger.
These are the things niggers do to us every day.

If you're trying to find some guilty white liberals, you're looking in the wrong place. You DO understand that guilty white liberalism is a MAJOR contributor to the race problem in this country, correct?
What are YOUR plans to do something about black privilege?
You know, the privilege to commit crimes then holler "SKRIMMINNAYSHINN EN PREJIDISS!" when the courts and police want them to pay for their crimes?
The privilege to vote for a candidate just because he is black while when a white votes for a white candidate because he's the better candidate it's "racism".
Affirmative action? You know, the minority candidate gets the job over a more qualified white person?
Giving an Oscar to a person just because he or she is black even though the movie was mediocre?

I've read the list. It restates 2-3 points that are mildly interesting. Otherwise, not news worthy, and it just rambles.

It's similar to giving out a Nobel Peace prize for having Goldman Sachs buy you an election.
Quite the accomplishment.
I see it as racist to set the bar so much lower for
Blackish persons.
It demeans the award and says to the world that if we make huge allowances even people of color can win it.

When the hell are they going to accept some of the blame themselves?! Christ, it's always "whitey keepin' 'em down."

Ask them who keeps them down in the motherland - Somalia, Kenya, Zambia - we've seen how well they've done over the last 500 years without all that terrible white oppression.

Just a stupid way of avoiding responsibility for your own life.
If someone else is responsible then you get to act however you want and blame someone else.
It's stupid because no one believes it, like the black convicted murder who yelled 'black lives matter' as he was led away for killing black people.

Here is the list, in plain English:
1. Don't voice your concerns about anti-white rhetoric
2. Don't try to improve buildings to make the neighborhood look nicer
3. Don't say anything to people of different backgrounds, because it's probably an insult you're not aware of
4. Don't try to be inclusive for the sake of diversity (wait, what?)
5. Don't ask non-white people what they mean when they say things you don't understand
6. Don't have minority role models
7. Harass everyone about your perceptions of racism, both real and imagined
8. Look for it everywhere, even under your bed at night
9. Don't participate in conversations about race when you should mind your own business
10. Remember, very smart people say you're racist ... even if you think you aren't
The list comes from a United Church of Christ with the website NewSacred.org.
