Reader's view: No built-in advantages to being white

With regard to the Un-Fair Campaign, when I as a person with white skin can check a box on an application for a scholarship, job, college acceptance, etc., and that check gives me a better chance of getting the position/grant because of said white skin, I will then say I have an advantage in life over those of other races.

Until then, I see them as having the advantage.
