There's been a lot of discussion about the existence or non existence of "white privilege". How about "white guilt"? Do you believe there really is such a thing?
Attaching poll
Well you havent attached it yet but....isnt that an individual thing? Can people speak for others and how they feel?
I guess I'll wait for the poll and see how you phrase it, what you mean.
Edit: I voted Other...because while I dont feel any 'white guilt' other people might.
I'm not sure many people would actually cop to feeling what others might see as "white guilt". They might not see it as "guilt" at all, but rather being sensitive or something like that.
:inandout:
I'm not sure your poll is crafted to elicit the responses you want then.
In discussion on reparations, lots of people (altho not the majority) do support paying that, so that certainly indicates some feel obligation or sensitivity at least.
Knowing that, I'd have to speculate that yes, 'white guilt' does exist.

Only around 1.4% of whites in America owned slaves. I have no guilt.
Yep. Absolutely. Almost exclusively in liberals. The more extreme the liberal, the deeper the guilt.There's been a lot of discussion about the existence or non existence of "white privilege". How about "white guilt"? Do you believe there really is such a thing?

of course people can exude shame or pride in anything, doesn't mean it's rational or justified
