Which "white people" are you talking about?
Irish? Scottish? Italians? How about Sicilian? Are Roma white to you? Greek?
See, that's the problem with pre-judging someone just on immutable characteristics that you believe mean a certain thing.
Throughout time groups of people have been biased against other groups, for all sorts of reasons, largely just "out group".
Assuming that only goes one way, and assuming based on skin color alone (again, exactly which color, is there a Pantone code for "white people"?) that everyone in that assumed group have the same experience is just nonsense. Or bias, prejudice, bigotry. Pick whichever you like.
