“Race doesn’t really exist for you because it has never been a barrier. Black folks don’t have that choice.” ~ Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“White privilege is an absence of the consequences of racism. An absence of structural discrimination, an absence of your race being viewed as a problem first and foremost.” ~ Reni Eddo-Lodge

We have to come to understand how it impacts our lives—and the lives of those who don’t identify as white.
We have to do what we can to use our white privilege to fight against systemic racism.
