[quote=Anonymous]White privilege is a fact of life in our society. Study after study shows that people of color face institutional discrimination in economics, employment and housing; in the criminal justice system and in medical care. This institutional discrimination gives European Americans a "leg up" in society. For most white Americans this "leg up" is invisible; they aren’t even aware that they have it. Most European Americans seem to feel that there is a level playing field. Intuitively though, we all know that this is not true. While it may be difficult for the white American middle-class mainstream to recognize and accept their participation in racial marginalization that insistent denial doesn't dispel the truth of the matter.[/quote]
