If you aren't aware of white privilege—well, you probably have white privilege it's white privilege when you don't have extra problems because of your skin color.

Only if you're around racist people.

Those who are white and say no are just so used to their privilege and don't even notice it. They're so used to seeing the smart Asian kid with glasses stereotype in movies, or walking into a store and just seeing white toy babies. So they deny and say they have no privilege. It's crazy.

@angeliquedevereux2 if you're making notions then can I also say those who saying it's real are just making excuses then. If white privillage is true then why are Asians even the most successful race in USA? They say they have no privillage for the same reason no body has a privilege just because of their race.

@Rangers White criminals get more lenient sentencing for the same exact crimes as people of color in the US.

I don't trust the first source, third and fourth source, but the second one appears good. Those are certainly some biases that need addressing starting with giving assistance equally to both and going further. One issue in solving this is that it doesn't clearly identify the problem after the first which is that blacks were less likely to receive assistance which has a pretty easy fix but there's still a discrepancy afterwards as well, but I'd venture to say it would be something along the lines of bad lawyers or crappy judges but to accurately determine what the exact cause is would require further investigation to the issue. One thing though that you might've missed is that it also showed a significant discrepancy in sentences for comparable crimes in women vs men, with women getting shorter sentences than yes, white men as well which could also use some tinkering but the reason I point this out is because you're using longer sentences to suggest that there's a white privilege but that same reasoning can be used to say there's a female privilege.

That doesn't still debunk why Asians still earn more than white people. You can see there are still more white people in jail. www.bop.gov/.../statistics_inmate_race.jsp But after all that kind of studies is also made because they believe the white privilege exist. Also talk about homicide for black lives matter?

en.wikipedia.org/.../Race_and_crime_in_the_United_States

Most homicides were intraracial, with 84% of White victims killed by Whites and 93% of African American victims killed by African Americans.[42][43][44]

In 2013, African Americans accounted for 52.2% of all murder arrests, with Whites 45.3% and Asians/indigenous Americans 2.5%. Of the above, 21.7% were Hispanic

But in the end, it's a matter of choice to make your privilege or not. It's just up to you. You're not even talking about "Asian privillage" there when they're less likely to commit crime, get homeless, get killed or be imprisoned.

Here's a way that there is no white privilege in colleges because with affirmative action in place, whites are denied in favor of blacks despite higher scores and this by the way doesn't really help them because then they get enrolled and they turnout to not be all that into college or unprepared which suggests that affirmative action is the wrong solution to the problem and it brings with it problems of it's own.
