Jemele Hill claims to know what DiJonai Carrington meant with 'White privilege' post, so what was it?

The WNBA doesn't always get attention for the right reasons.

In fact, these days, it's increasingly for the wrong ones.

Perhaps no other WNBA incident in recent months has generated as much attention as DiJonai Carrington's, shall we say, aggressive foul on Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham.

Carrington clotheslined Cunningham, leaving her with a bloody mouth.

The foul was upgraded to a flagrant 2, resulting in Carrington's immediate ejection.

That was bad enough, especially considering it came against Cunningham, who's become public enemy number one in the WNBA for saying that males shouldn't compete in women's sports.

But Carrington made it worse when she posted "White privilege" on social media after the game, then tagged the Indiana Fever.

DIJONAI CARRINGTON DECLARES 'WHITE PRIVILEGE' AFTER EJECTION FOR SMACKING SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM IN THE FACE Most took that to mean that Carrington was implying that she was ejected because her foul came against a White player.

Essentially, that she was only assessed a harsher foul because of her race, and obviously, Cunningham's.

Despite the immediate backlash to Carrington's post, the WNBA has remained essentially silent about it.

Though Carrington herself addressed it by... referring to her educational background? "I’ve never once claimed that the assessment of the foul was White privilege (that was your assumption)," she posted on X, in reply to Emmanuel Acho.

"Try exercising your critical thinking skills, I know you studied psych.

"Furthermore, I’m the LAST thing from ignorant or asinine when it comes to speaking on ' White privilege ,' do ya research on that one.

I actually went to school, one of the top universities might I add, to educate myself on this exact subject," Carrington added.
