Sorry. Let me get this straight. You honestly believe that every single "White person" was born with a silver spoon in their mouths and automatically is "Privileged'?
You don't have to be a certain ethnic group to be poor and to live in a poor area and to be wanting. Certainly not when I was a kid.
She is not talking about that.
"White privilege" is an academic term from critical race theory - a branch of academics.
It basically posits that whites have a blinkered view of racism and race related issues due to being part of the dominant majority society.
It can add a valuable perspective for introspection for whites on how they meet and are met by society. A common example is a "normal" white person going into a shop, going about their business, and leaving - thinking nothing more of it. Whilst a similar trip to a shop for a member of a racial minority might be marred by suspicious looks, or downright harrasment from shop detectives etc. It is difficult in some cases to entangle cause and effect, and what are mere differences in perception. The same look might be interpreted differently depending on the mindset of the person being observed
Personally I think the entire field add very little either to this conversation, or to academia at large - of course that might be my white privilege talking...
It all too often boils down to that whites should keep shtum on issues of race, and allows certain white "privileged" individuals to feel smug about themselves for telling others how shtum they are.
If we are to build a harmonious society all voices needs to be heard, and not any racial group should be excluded.
That such an idea even can be voiced by serious people, shows what sort of damage a "science" like critical race theory can engender.
