there is nothing holding white people back(institutional racism, discrimination, etc) and therefore no white person should complain about a country that has SO much white privilege.

Lena, are you missing something? Last time I checked education through HS was free! If you are White, reasonably well spoken and look presentable, you will be hired and gainfully employed. Maybe not rich, but Middle Class.

The institution that hold poor, white people back is poverty. Is it easier to be white in America: probably, but that does not mean that they will get handed the world.
Rich Culture, Middle Class Culture, and Poor Cultures are all very different. A poor white person has more in common with a poor black person than with a rich white person.
That is why people say that racism was invented by the rich to keep the poor fighting amongst themselves.

ummm my brother did school and a job full time his wife worked full time then part time plus a mom, so my brother could go to college. ( hes a white boy btw ) He was going to school to be a pharmacist. He tried to get into a pharmacy school locally but was turned away because affirmative action said they had to give the spot to a minority. My brother was more qualified than anyone else applying but he had to go to another state and pay about 40% more money. So no I disagree. ""Sociald: your brother obviously wasn't as qualified as the MANY other white males who applied to his Pharmacology school, maybe that was his problem"" My brother had a 3.85 gpa and btw he is now a pharmacist running a pharmacy. he just has about 12k dollars extra to pay off on his education bill.

Wrong. It's about where you came from, too. People born into poverty get left behind. Black people born into poverty get left behind even farther, and black females born into poverty....
