White Privilege?

In the wake of the election, I want to know what exactly is "White Privilege?" The tone of my skin is considered white. Does my skin tone mean there is absence of adversity that I have faced or will have to face? Does my skin tone lessen my talents? Have I been granted some sort of "hall pass" to not have to struggle as hard as others? Does my skin tone mean I have more opportunities than others? Does my skin color insulate me from trials and tribulations of life? Does my skin color make my story any less real? Do I have to feel guilty because of the way I was born?
