If white people in those positions can have major influence in the community and bestow racial privilege on others, then minorities in those positions can do the same. If racial privilege exists as you claim, then minority privilege exists along with it. If minority privilege doesn't exist then neither does white privilege.

*sigh*

Minorities can not bestow anywhere near the benefits that whites can because whites control a disproportionate amount of the wealth and power..  That is why it is a privilege to be white in the United States instead of a minority.

if you have a city where minorities can hand out a dozen jobs and whites can hand out hundreds of jobs that does not mean everything is "equal".  What it means is that it is a privilege to be white because whites can hand out so many more jobs.
