How can blacks have privilege over white superiors, when we recently achieved equal recognition of civil rights? The idea of black privilege is a vague and invalid concept. For the WHITE oppressors to instill this notion into society is illegitimate. CNN's article, "It's Time to Talk About Black Privilege," presents this idea to contradict the ideas of white privilege. This is the backbone of black privilege; it is used to justify minorities struggle to face white privilege. It is absurd however, that whites can conceive this idea if they are the majority, if they are the ones who succeeds over other races, if they have been the ones obsessed with conquering the world and being this super race.
Black privilege is created out of the concept that since blacks have been neglected in history, they are subjected to gaining more positions and rights than whites. Whites are criticizing the African-American race for having opportunities for them, "Blacks can belong to clubs and organizations that cater specifically to their race, but there's no National Association for the Advancement of White People because such a group would be deemed racist." Those who claim this are not taking into consideration that these programs stem from blacks being underrepresented and not having equal services and opportunities for them. This is the root of the issue. It isn’t about competing to see which race has more privilege, it is the struggle to accept that whites have the ability since birth, to succeed in life over a black for the mere fact that there skin color is fairer.
