Right. There's still racial bias out there. It's how to move forward that's in debate. And like you said, the question of even acknowledging it (objective significance) is part of the debate.

Her comments are personifying the institutional racism into a midwestern Farmer. That's a poor approach to distill the system down to people who didn't necessarily ask to be bred into their segment of society any more than the "at-risk" or minorities did. Sure white people - for better or worse - are also institutionalized to have advantage in society, but it's just as unfair to ask them (us?) to feel guilt or overtly apologize for it as it is for whites to ask blacks to just boot-strap their way out of racism.

We get it, White Priviledge, where do I donate money or say I'm sorry?
