Calling it white privilege only does the former and excuses the latter. You want to be concerned with why the police are being racist, then stop blaming the white people "benefitting" from the police's racism. And, yes, blaming "white privilege" IS blaming those benefitting while excusing the racist because now the focus is not on the racist. Now, we're talking about whether or not there is white privilege instead of going, "That cop is racist. We need to change that."
