White privilege:inherent advantages possessed by a white person on the basis of their race in a society characterized by racial inequality and injustice whileswhite supremacy: the belief that white people constitute a superior race and should therefore dominate society, typically to the exclusion or detriment of other racial and ethnic groups, in particular black or Jewish people.



2. White privileged:- I can turn on the television or open the front page of the paper and see people of my race widely represented.

White supremacy:- I have the privilege of having positive relationship with the police General.


3. No, I don't have the privilege of having lower college tuition, a multitude of scholarships, or getting into top universities with lower scores. If white people were racist, and ruled with an iron fist there would be no affirmative action. Add that onto the media making every white person guilty for being white, and you've got a whole lot of anti white racism. There's enough example to write a book, but why? You've made up your mind haven't you?
