As a white man, I am constantly swimming in a sea of racial ignorance. I have the privilege of never having to think of myself as a racial being in this society. I can spend hours, days, weeks, and even months never having to think of myself as a white man. I can go anywhere and be assured that I will be around people of my own race. Until I begin to truly reflect on my racial identity in this society, and begin to instruct others on this, especially my white friends and colleagues, then nothing will change for my friends of other races who don’t get to share in this privilege.
