I feel like more often than not it's black people telling me about racism than me actually seeing racism in real life. One of my close black friends recently said to me "I think I didn't get the job because I'm black." umm pretty sure he was the only one thinking about the color of his skin in the interview.

It was very frustrating when the black kids (with same privileges and upbringing) were able to get into colleges with only a 3.0 grade pt average and average SATs while those of us with 4.0+ did not.
Get off it. Just because black people are raised in a high socioeconomic class doesn't mean that they don't face pernicious racism. I'm white and I can't believe people actually think the playing field is level.
