Every aspect of life is easier for a white male.

I wish my life was as easy as guilty white people said it was.
"White people have money" - I grew up in a trailer.
"Minority kids get picked on" - try growing up a fat kid that doesn't play sports.
"White kids get preferential treatment for college selection" - I didn't qualify for any scholarships, and had to work my way through school. BTW, hundreds of minority college scholarships go unawarded.
"White people have it easy" - eat me, I've worked my ass off to get where I am.
The 1960s called, they want their stereotypes back. It's 2015, any person of any race that is WILLING TO WORK FOR IT can get anywhere in our society. In case you haven't noticed, we have a black president. Putting aside political affiliations, that torpedoes any argument you have about how black people can't make it in our society.
In another generation this won't even be a topic of conversation, except for people trying to make a buck off of racist notions of the past (Jesse Jackson) and old people that refuse to adapt. My kids are blind to race, it doesn't even register with them. My daughter's best friend since kindergarten is black, her race never even enters into conversation. I'm white, my wife is white, but we have two black brother-in-laws and a black sister-in-law. This is real life integration, and it's slowly eliminating race from our society.
