This is worth a watch.
Wow, just WOW, from this self-confessed "redneck"! He delivers his opinions in one of the most accessible ways I've ever heard.
He doesn't just talk about white privilege; he lays out a bunch of ways for white folks to start truly being a part of change. Here are some of his better quotes.
Recognize that everything's white-washed.
"This country was built for white people, and it's time white Americans come to terms with that and realize that we are benefiting from it."

Don't be defensive. Don't rationalize it away. Don't be indifferent.
Stop being defensive. I'm saying take some fucking responsibility. All people are equal. God made us that way.
Take responsibility and speak up.
I'm not talking about all white people being bad, but speak up and don't ever ignore racism. It's the inaction that's always destroyed other people and other nations.
No one wants to be racist, and recognizing that the system is not set up for people of color is our first step toward fixing the problem. The bottom line: We are empowered. Let's make change together.

Let's do something about it. Let's speak up. Let's vote. Let's create legislation and policies that fight against this shit. Let's make things fair and equal. Let's take some responsibility and never ever, ever ignore any form of racism that you see or experience or witness. Always speak up and act up. Please. Thank you
Ron: Yes, there is only one race - the human race! And it is good to hear "redneck"(he describes himself) tell the truth...
