Black privilege is being able to get money easily if you’re in poverty.

It’s harder for non-black people. Now, we have affirmative action, welfare, etc., all catering to black people.

[citation needed]

The Journal of Hey, Everybody Knows… is not, in fact, a valid peer-reviewed source. You might want to look up what affirmative action is and how it works, as well as the statistics for who’s on welfare in this country before you make claims like this.

And then once you’re in possession of some facts, you might take an interest in reading the personal accounts of people of color who’ve had to apply for public assistance in various forms and see how “easy” the process was made for them.
