White privilege is being able to say you’re from a country that your ancestors clearly weren’t from, without people asking where you were “born” or where you were from “originally”. It’s being able to go to a university and not have people with advanced degrees openly suggest that you can’t really be from the country that you say you are, because your skin colour doesn’t match their expectations of what colour someone from that country should be. White privilege is being able to be from anywhere in the world and have your identity respected as such, while a PoC who is like you in every other respect can only ever be defined based on where their ancestors were from, which is a question that other white people don’t even hesitate to broach, no matter how many times the PoC in question asserts their national identity.
