The Seattle Medium - The Wealth Gap and the Souls of Angry White Folks

Interesting article, especially this quote: "He has gotten into the frame of mind that goes like this: white men have it rough out there and, in fact, white men face discrimination compared with--hold onto your hat--Black women."

I think this attitude comes from the fact that most white folks don't acknowledge their privilege, so the slightest hint of less privilege equals "reverse racism" (the dumbest term ever), when really, the odds are still tilted in the direction of white people, especially men. I mean really - Black women are holding him down?
