White privilege (Israeli edition) is to walk down the street in south Tel-Aviv and not be stopped and asked for papers by undercover immigration police because they think that you might be a Sudanese “infiltrator” who came to Israel to take over the country.

You see, white d00dz set up this thing called the patriarchy a long time ago. We all live under it. We actively try to tear it down, but that hasn’t happened yet. In the patriarchy, masculinity is seen as ideal. At the same time, we live in a racist society (also set up by white d00dz, btw). In this racist society, white is seen as the ideal. Now think about black males growing...

White privilege is knowing that even if you’re the minority in your school within the student body, the teachers, administration, and boards of education for your county and state are almost definitely dominated by people who look like you.

I wish I could filter out “Not Your Typical Gay” posts from my dash. It’s so problematic and unnecessary and does more damage than good. It actually perpetuates stereotypes within the community rather than dispelling them to those on the outside.
Fuck fuck fuck I hate it so much.

Tumblr has an awful victimization problem. And of course by victimization I mean people who exploit hardships they or others face, or even invoke specificities of their own identity in a conversation where these specificities don’t belong (e.g. telling someone to suck your dick and when they defend themselves call them anti-black) in order to feel slighted or insulted, or...

When you discuss the wage gap, here are a few things to keep in mind:
Only white women make $0.77 to a man’s dollar.
Black women make about $0.68 to a man’s dollar.
Latina women make about $0.58 to a man’s dollar.
