Just the Tip

white privilegeI was reading Thom Hartmann's excellent article "The Racism Behind Boehner's Threats to sue Obama" when one line leapt out at me:

"One of the biggest benefits of white privilege is that white people never, ever wonder if something has happened because of the color of their skin."

From an anglo perspective it's a real eye-opener but it needs a certain measure of improvement. Such as:

"One of the biggest benefits of white male privilege is that they never, ever have to wonder if they're being measured by their sex or the color of their skin."

Now go read Mr. Hartmann's article, especially the Lee Atwater parts about abstract Republican race-baiting.

Black waitress: Eight percent tip? I wonder if it's because I'm black?
Black waiter: Only ten percent? Probably because I'm black.
Black waitress: A six percent tip? I wonder if it's because I'm black?
White waitress: Eight percent tip? I wonder who's on Conan tonight.
Just the tip.
