Join me as I tell my kids what white privilege is (and isn't).
In 1964 United States Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart famously said "I know it when I see it" when trying to explain should and shouldn't be considered... Never mind...
While not having a formal definition worked for him, it wont work for me or today's topic... White privilege...
Now white privilege covers a lot of things from laws and policies; to make up companies not offering darker shades, black hair being deemed unprofessional at work, and band aids being flesh colored.
All of these things help to make fair skin normal and offering whiteness the benefit of doubt.
The term 'white privilege was first coined by Peggy McIntosh in an essay from1988 called...
