I understand why you may feel this way and here is why.
However I will have to respectfully disagree and here is why.
I am most of those the things on that list and I realize that I'm at an advantage because of them. But I'm also black and I realize the challenges that come with that.
Example...I live in San Francisco (where cops were sending racists text messages) and I walk to the gym in the morning. Now when I walk to the gym in the morning it is cold an I wear a hooded sweatshirt. And because
I have to make a conscious choice to not put my hoodie on my head so I don't look "suspicious" and not have my hands in my pocket so I don't pull them out so the police don't think I have a dangerous object. So now I'm walking to the gym cold as fuck so I can minimize my worry about being shot by the police. And my mother worries about me in that regard. That is me, a black man with a PhD and zero criminal record and I have to worry when the police drive by me.
Now I have never been, nor will I ever be white, but I would like to know how many white men have to worry about that.
TL;DR: I understand why the author feels this way, but as a black man I have to change my behavior in ways because I'm black so I don't risk getting shot by the police.
