#blacklivesmatter racism is a human problem

My asian and blacker friends that are similar to me in most other ways are no less privileged than I am.

You're trying to add up all the 'privilege' to some kind of total score and tot that up against how you've done in life, I suspect because you want to think, like most, that what they've achieved is off their own backs and due to how they've worked, I think that's why a lot of white people don't seem to like the idea, like it's taking away from what they've done. That's not what it's all about, as I've already said, it's more to do with being aware that some things aren't a concern to you, maybe race in an airport, sex whilst walking the dog or surname when booking a weekend away, it doesn't take away from what you have or have done as someone who can recognise their privilege, but does show where things can be different and can be made equal for those who may not have that, specific in that situation, privilege.
