I like that Chesterton show.
I think that White Guilt is supposed to be based on White Privilege, but can also be based on Institutional Racism. Institutional Racism is defined as: inherent racism in institutions that were formed by majority White populations and for their benefit. White Privilege is defined as: unearned benefits that Whites enjoy, because the country has been majority White for so long. Whites are not supposed to feel guilty for being White; they are supposed to feel guilty for White Privilege and Institutional Racism, which is the fault of White people, not people of color.
Obviously, an adult White person cannot change the past and sitting around feeling guilty about it, doesn't do much good. So, they are supposed try and make a difference. We are supposed to do this is by controlling our speech. This is accomplished by self censorship and group censorship. Peer pressure is an effective way of accomplishing this goal.
The P.C. Police
Examples of White Privilege include: ~People won't be surprised when you are articulate and well spoken.
~You don't feel pressure to represent your race.
~You don't have to deal with negative crime statistics about your race.
~You don't have to hear that your race's iq is lower than White's.
~You don't have to wonder if the grocery store will carry the foods you like.
~You can find lots of books about your races history in the library.
~You don't have to struggle to learn the language.
~You can relate to television, especially the old stuff.
~The most honored musicians in the culture belong to your race.
Ways to overcome White Privilege include: ~Educate yourself about Anti-Racism (don't ask people of color, look it up yourself).
~Avoid Cultural Appropriation (for example, if you are a twerker or a rapper, be sure to give credit to African Americans for inventing this when you twerk or rap, don't just act like you invented it, because that is offensive to people of color).
~Demand that your school, workplace, government (especially local), church, restaurant, website, whatever have an equal number of people of color as they do Whites, especially Straight White Men (by far the most privileged group in The World). Also, make sure that the people of color have an equal amount of power.
~Don't be nice to White people who segregate themselves from People Of Color or say racist things about them. In fact, have nothing to do with them.
~A token Person Of Color is not enough; you need a lot of them.
~Really come down hard on The Police, because they are institutionally racist. If they do anything that even smacks of racism, severely criticize them. This cannot be stressed enough. They must be stopped. Protest and give money to organizations that fight against racist police tactics.
~Call for fairness, when you encounter White Privilege. For example, when a cab driver tries to pick you up, because you are a White, while trying to avoid picking up the Person Of Color. That is a clear and outrageous example of White Privilege, which should be openly opposed. In other words, refuse the cab and tell them to pick up The Person Of Color.
~ Support Congressional studies that could lead to Reparations for Blacks, because of Slavery.
