Only if those holding power are doling out favors to other white people. Again, what favors are being handed out to people of the same race by those in power?

Let me put it this way: an overwhelming majority of NBA players are black. 2 kids from the exact same background have the goal of playing in the NBA; 1 is white, 1 black. According to your logic, the black kid is more likely to make it, not because he's more skilled, no, it''s because most NBA players are black.
