Here's an example of my white male privilege.

31. No doubt in my mind.

It exists, it's evil and it needs to stop! And as a white, male, oh the stories I can tell....

As a teenager, I blew through a speed trap set up by two motorcycle officers in my rather white suburb. Not paying attention, I just below right through and didn't even attempt to pull over. Cop came after me all in a huff. Told me in no uncertain terms "when a police officer tells you to pull over, you better pull over!" Chatted about where I was going (to work), where I went to school (local high school), who I knew there (yea, I know so and so) and on and on, then told me to slow down and drive safely in our rather white suburb and sent me on my way. No ticket. Never even asked me for my license. Early 1980's. My first really memorable brush with white, male privilege.
