I think it’s hard to be a girl or young woman who spends a fair amount of time on the internet without coming across the term “white privilege.” But while its popularity as a term has undoubtedly grown thanks to woke Tumblr posts and nuggets of wisdom from Amandla Stenberg and Rowan Blanchard Instagram posts, it’s a phrase that is becoming more mainstream. I mean, Macklemore just came out with a song literally called “White Privilege” not too long ago. And yet, there’s still a lot of confusion over what exactly white privilege means. Hell, I–a black chick–have gotten into debates about the phrase with white friends, black friends, and every kind of friend in-between.
