Do you think there is a better way to frame the conversation of "white privilege" so that it doesn't come off as accusatory? The term clearly isn't as dramatic as the "n-word for white people", because there obviously is no such term. However, just because it isn't as bad as that, there is some point where when you tell people "you have an unearned advantage because of how you were born" that it's reasonable they will get huffy over it. It can come off like you are challenging their accomplishments or trivializing their struggles. Is the onus entirely on them to recognize what you are saying is not that at all, or do you think there is another way to approach the topic in a broad way that will at least make the conversation less inflammatory than it generally seems to be?
