What if they are from millionaire families? Are they still underprivileged?

Clutch dem pearls harder.

Are you really going to tell everyone here a black poor person is equal to a white one?

Really? That's the hill you're going to die on?

No, I'm telling you your belief is racist and ignorant, because of your assumption a black skin inherently makes one 'worse off' than white skin.

I'm someone who grew up in a poor mixed race community. But please tell me more about how my real life experience is wrong? I certainly get that a lot, especially whenever I'm around wealthy and privileged people.

What's funny is when I meet other people who grew up the way I did... they tend to be not dogmatic and way less racist/sexist, compared to the rich white/black folks. And the Asians... just don't care about any of that shit.
