You know why? it's called white privilege.
Being black isn't a huge part of my individual identity but it's constantly thrown in my face all of the time because humans as a whole are superficial. If I walk into a store, I get stared at like I'm going to steal something. When you have to deal with racism on a daily basis then you will think differently about it.

Ever thought you were imagining people are staring at you? Or that it had nothing to do with your skin color? Maybe it's time to stop using your race as the go-to assumption any time your faced with any sort of adversity.
I'm not saying you don't have to deal with racism, I'm sure you do run across it. On a daily basis, I very much doubt. Unless you count people looking at you as racism...
