Objective racism against anyone is wrong. But racism against whites does not remotely carry the same weight as racism against blacks. There hasn't been a history of white suppression. 

To pretend because there are poor white people and poor black people we're all the same is to sweep under the rug the very real racism black families in America have had to deal with. White people are not the victims of racism on an institutional level. 

The fact that we're having to have this conversation is kind of proof of the ignorant bubble most white people live in. We have no idea what it is like to experience racism in the way blacks have, and that alone is a privilege. My hope is that eventually it IS a distant memory. But we still have work to do. Saying "all lives matter" is not helping move the needle in the right direction. It's the epitome of white privilege. Of course all lives matter, but white lives and black lives haven't had the same experience unfortunately. We need sympathy.
