It is important to understand that the privilege enjoyed by white people today was not something that was simply granted to them at birth. The historical reality is that white people had to FIGHT to achieve our privilege.
White people fought against the ruling class in England, they fought against the foreign invaders from the east, they fought against the natives of this land, and they fought the lawless, barbaric tribes of indigenous Australia. This was no easy task.
In order to get where we are today, our ancestors constructed incredible ships of war and had to organize well trained, military battalions that successfully conquered other people in war.
Our people are privileged because we EARNED it.
