    It’s power not skin color. I get it, it’s uncomfortable seeing how people who look like us plundered the world and have caused untold suffering while propping up those of us who look similar. And I don’t begrudge the oppressed the right to be angry at the whole of the privileged group. But as white people we don’t help by hating white people, we help by working to right the wrongs that gave us this privilege and by striving for a fair, just, and equal society.
