Question 3 • CA-Ethnic Studies

Which best describes the concept of White privilege?

Answer
A
All White people lead easy, problem-free lives in the US.
B
Most White people are wealthy and do not have to worry about money.
C
White people have unearned advantages based on perceptions tied to race.
D
White people believe they are superior to other racial or ethnic groups.

Explanation

White privilege refers to unearned advantages people may receive because they are perceived as White. It does not mean every White person has an easy life or is wealthy, so A and B are too broad. Belief in racial superiority, described in D, is a different concept.
