Okay, I lived in a predominantly black school system while growing up, and was bullied for it. That's what this song is about. Evil is evil, prejudice is prejudice, no matter who does it. All the idiots here going on about white privilege really need to shut the fuck up, the idea of white privilege is exactly what the "guilty of being white" is about. Talking about white privilege as an absolute is dumb because there is no one thing that dominates all, American society is not perfectly homogenous. There are times, places, and situations where what was the minority on the large scale becomes the majority in the small scale. White man's guilt isn't going to fix the problem, it just breeds more racism.
