There's like 10 or 11 images I'm not copying them all over. It's a good read though (if you don't read the comments section).

Here we go again

Some of these are true. Some of these are a stretch. Like the prison one, the school/graduation one--> both of these seem to be caused not primarily by skin color but personal choices...

A college course would work as well.

This person said it perfectly. This is just objective truth, no real arguments to be made.

Exactly my thoughts reading the title ,okay let's hear it then ...

I'm glad this exists though, because the people who are offensive are not signing up for that course.

My final project in my Social Effects Of Racism course was actually on the disproportionate amount of AA that go to prison compared to Caucasians for the same crimes or lack thereof. There are studies that show that white officers automatically assume the average black person is a criminal or guilty before they even hear their side of the story.

So that one especially is true.

I believe in white privilege, but really, those college/prison statistics don't mean ****.
Asian people are even more likely to go university and even less likely to be in prison. Are they privileged?

wtf

Person who wrote this doesn't understand statistics.

true, but at the same time, there's a higher proportion of blacks (and hispanics) who commit certain crimes and violent crimes in particular than say whites or asians (not counting pacific islanders, because their rates >>> blacks). So there's a causality, in some ways, to the system.

I know but it's from tumblr so you can't expect much. The sentiment of the comic is true and anyone can see if it they choose to be perceptive.

mess

So you would think...

I did a report on expulsion, suspension, and detention rates for black students. And found that in every case, black students got reprimanded more often for the same instances of misbehavior than other students.

You know that "angry black woman" stereotype? Well it doesn't just apply to angry black women (obviously, esp. looking at the Richard Shermann thing). It applies to black people in general. Even black kids--who are perceived to be more aggressive and/or rude than they actually are simply because they're black.
