The persistence of white privilege and institutional racism in US Policy

http://academic.udayton.edu/race/06hrights/GeoRegions/NorthAmerica/USNGO2000/Privilege/index.htm

In this analysis report, racial minorities are cast as "problems to be solved" instead of victims of an unjust system. Yet, as 19th century, an African American freedom fighter put it nearly a century ago, "There is no Negro problem, the problem is whether the American people have loyalty, honor, patriotism enough, to live up to their own constitution." White privilege is more than a set of attitudes or individual opinions. It is an overarching, comprehensive framework of policies, practices, institutions and cultural norms that undergird every aspect of US society. Too often, discussion of racial discrimination focuses solely on the effects on those who are oppressed as if there are no oppressors or beneficiaries.
