White Privilege

Noun

The unquestioned and unearned set of advantages, entitlements, benefits and choices bestowed on people solely because they are White, separate from one’s level of income or effort. Generally White people who experience such privilege do so without being conscious of it. White privilege does not mean that White people do not face challenges or struggles; it does mean that those struggles are not due to being White.
