Say you woke up as a 20 year old male in college, you make good grades and you are a biology major at a reputable college. You are a bit over average height, a hair under 6 feet. your kinda attractive, and keep your body in shape. But your BLACK. Would you freak?, would everything else positive become absolete because your black?. Are you afraid that no matter what you like like or how hard you work, you will never be equal in the eyes of the majority?.Are you conscious of your unearned privelage? As I get older and meet more people, I have realized how much race is such a factor in life. How people treat you, what people think of you etc. People get nervous when I enter a room, people harass me when I am at stores, people think I stole my new car that my brother and me both payed for, people say how I never earned anything in life because it was all " given to you because your black". Whites talk about how black people are lazy, but when I work hard I get treated like a black savage
