The entire concept of white guilt is precariously balanced upon knowledge of the centuries of being "on top" and keeping everyone else away from said top, to an extreme.
I don't think anyone should feel "guilty", lords know I never do. I just think an ability to read between the lines of a history book is appreciated.
I especially like the conversations that steer towards the concept that all mainstream historical records supporting white guilt were "tainted" by minorities attempting to trigger such a response, without heeding the idea that in order for that to be true non-caucs would have to have been in charge of education , history, and the dissemination o each without approvals or checks.
It is one thing to think i mentioned this to create guilt. but that wasn't where i was taking the conversation. it is more about acknowledging the fact that injustice still exist for the non dominant variables of society.
No matter where this conversation leads, White, Males will still be on top of society, and by being born as anything else will give the rest of society disadvantages. This includes white females. It is just how society operates, it has been this way since colonial times for race, and before that for gender.
