What is to be done about WHITE PRIVILEGE ?

        
                                 Ask these scholars: WHAT IS TO BE DONE about entrenched WHITE PRIVILEGE ? To be sure , the Obama years have been the Golden Age of the Black Bourgeoisie. I guess the only thing we can do about WHITE PRIVILEGE is magnify BLACK PRIVILEGE ? Al Sharpton for Secretary of Education ?
   
Can this academic gang indignant about " white privilege " reveal their personal politics ? Could the faculty environment at CCRI be a breeding ground for Hillary Clinton supporters ?
Can they enumerate the privileges of poor and homeless white people in West Virginia or South Providence ?
Any socialists among them ?
           This " gang of four " argues categorically  in today's Providence Journal Commentary page that IF YOU ARE WHITE YOU ARE PRIVILEGED .


Maryhelen MacInnes, Hsin-Yi Liu, Jana Knibb and Leslie Killgore are members of the sociology faculty at the Community College of Rhode Island
                


As a privileged WHITE male living modestly on a Social Security income I am willing to share my white privilege with any rich black person in Rhode Island. I have a formerly rich white Jewish friend ( Brown University Medical School is named after the family ) : " Ragged Dave " is willing to share space in his dilapidated Lincoln Town car with YOU . And EBT resources. And " Ragged Dave " was long ago converted to socialism. He tells me his black landlord in Seattle-a fan of Dr. Ben Carson-  looked down on him.
It's a complex world !
