I don’t harbor any of those guilts. Never owned any slaves, or knew anyone who did. I was born white, raised in a southern cotton mill town with little or no privilege except what my parents worked for and provided for me, and any success I achieved I worked my ass off for it.

The libs remind me of some of the contestants on “America’s Got Talent” who think their back story, I.e. Being orphan, having anxiety disorders, etc should guarantee them a “win” regardless of their act talent, or lack thereof.

LOL! Sorry you missed out on taking advantage of white priviliege. Yeah, I’m sure that in my 36 years with the same company I was “granted” all that I ever got. Couldn’t have been anything more since I started as a labor grade 7 mechanic and somehow worked my way up in to a supervisory position, a test conductor position and eventually a systems engineer position. Nah. Couldn’t have been months on end of no days off and working rotating 12 hours shifts to get the job done. Pretty certain that didn’t have any impact on my advancement. :>}
