At best he's going to dismiss it, often he's going to rebel against it, and at worst he's going to accept it as fact and often encounters feelings of "It's all my fault". 


And you might want to check on the suicide rate for white males; which is all the other points in that post you chose not to address.


No other population tells whitey he's a victim of another group. Every other group gets told that (often the white male) another population is to blame for them not achieving their full potential 

Would it not be more accurate to say minority populations have been held back by those in power...which, in this country, tends to me white people?

I'm not talking yesterday but over the course of the history of the US.

Whereas white people tend to not have to face that restriction from the get-go.  

Meanwhile white people, who hold the vast majority of "power" in the US blame minorities for all problems like crime, drugs, etc.
