Today we are going to talk about an important topic within society today,

adherent advantages that white people possess in society. N/A 1 min

in their groups of 3-5 what they saw in the video and how it made them
feel. Next, we will discuss these three questions out loud together. What
privileges does Connor talk about having because of his skin colour? If
Connor was a person of colour, how could his life be altered? How might
people perceive him differently? Why is Connor just now realizing how http://www.whitenesspr
lucky he is to have a relatively spotless record? What does this tell us oject.org/millennials
about the importance of talking about whiteness among others and
ourselves? 9 mins
