White exceptionalism, guilt, shame

I think I have been caught in the white exceptionalism mindset quite a bit especially in more recent years. I have tried to make sure I'm not racist but have not pushed myself to be anti-racist. I don't feel that i have experience a lot of the white guilt or shame because I have always told myself that I didn't do those thins and so I shouldn't/didn't need to feel guilty.
