Cute and bubbly comedian Jessie Kahnweiler sets out to see if White Privilege really exists, and to find out if being white will prevent her from getting arrested.
* Be sure to turn down your speakers, the girl has a mouth like a hardened criminal already.
Try to imagine a person of color in place of Ms Kahnweiler as she tries to get noticed and arrested. I think you’ll agree, it’s hard to even picture someone else offering to sell drugs to a pair of cops and walking away with a mild warning. Of course, they were having a companionable break in the shade, and what kind of sorry pusher is marketing anti-depressants?! .
You can’t say the white chick didn’t give it her all. Indecent Exposure, Drunk in Public, Bum Rushing the Mayor – while he’s in a parade! Snorkeling in a fountain. You’ve got to be a cute, bubbly chick in tiny gold shorts to get away with this stuff. . Likewise, joining a parade of police, and posing with the Chief of Police takes a certain amount of chutzpah.
If the hot, cranky and extremely wary officer in the police cruiser didn’t arrest her, nobody ever will. . Asked if he thinks white privilege exists, the LAPD poster boy responds “I don’t understand your question.” Yep, this is your guy.
. She’s not scientific in her research methods, but she is obviously onto something!
