I am privileged that my parents beat my ass when I got out of line, and always med me accountable for my own actions. I'm privileged that I went to College, got a degree, and promptly set about paying off my student loans. I am privileged that I had the honor of protecting and serving for 20 years while being paid peanuts. I'm privileged to have raised three young men to adulthood who will likely go on to bust their asses to support a family the way I did, and my father before me, and his before him. White privilege is not a myth, it is an outright lie, perpetuated to keep black people focused on the wrong enemy. The enemy has no color. The enemy simply has a common goal.
