[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s assume, for the sake of argument, that every white person became fully and appropriately aware of white privilege.  What would the next step be, politically, and as a matter of policy! for ending white privilege?[/quote]

Ending all legacy admits to all universities, even private ones. Reparations, possibly, even for people who don't "deserve" it (essentially redistributing wealth from white America to black America). A lot more teeth to anti-discrimination law, with zero attention paid to whether or not someone's livelihood or reputation might be damaged if found guilty. Automatic, public, independent investigations of police shootings. A careful combing of all laws, on every government level, to make sure that even though "neutral," they aren't designed to favor those people already in power.

It would feel a lot like losing privileges to most white people, even though the goal would be undoing the automatice assumption that our current value and power systems are the best ones.[/quote]
