deserve to be worse off due to their relative privilege compared to the black people in the same area
Huh? I dont understand what you are getting at.

Now, they aren't saying that X people deserve to be worse off, it's more a "we are more in pain, why aren't we being helped?", I understand that. However, they certainly aren't going to do a U turn and say "yes, we need to focus on helping all these other groups".I refuse to take part in the endless privileging of white pain above all others. (Martin Gilens, who has studied this stuff going way back, notes that when the media face of poverty is white, this country suddenly gets a lot more compassionate.) Latinos and African Americans remain worse off than the white working class—which is still the “largest demographic bloc in the workforce”—by pretty much every measurable outcome, from home ownership to life expectancy. Where are these appeals for us when we protest or riot against the systemic inequality we live with? Where are all the calls to recognize and understand our anger?
