In many countries, members of the dominant ethnic or racial group tend to favor other members of their own group, give them the

benefit of any doubt, and take what they say more seriously. Minorities are often discounted as less important or even hostile for insisting on being treated fairly. In the United States, what do we call this discrepancy between the experiences of the dominant and the minority groups?

Answer:

White privilege

Explanation:

White privilege is the term used to refer to the privilege and facilities that a social majority has over a social minority, in which case it refers to the privileges that the white population has over the non-white population (blacks, Indians, Asians, Latinos, among others) in a society where everyone should have equal privileges. The white privilege has existed since the days of slavery and is far from over, as society still over-values the light-skinned population, while discriminating against the dark-skinned population for no reason other than color.

describe a topic, idea, or concept you find so engaging that it makes you lose track of time. why does it captivate you? what or
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Personally, a topic that always interests me is death.

Explanation:

I can research and get lost in thought about death for hours on end. I often find myself amused, frightened and sometimes angry at the topic of death. The act of dying is not what interests me, it is what happens after we die that i find interesting. It captivates me because the real answer is unknown,many claim to have seen death or that they have the answer to the question, "what happens once you die?" However the truth remains that death is an experience we all will only fully understand once we go through. I am sure some people who claim they've experienced the afterlife are being truthful in their sightings ,however with everyone's conflicting views and experience, it can only be theorised as we live on Earth. I turn to the internet, religious leaders and people i encounter for information.
