I'm always surrounded by whites and I'm usually the token black guy as there's not many of us in IT period. I have no problem with white people but it doesn't mean that I'm not aware of what I have or other minorities have to do to excel.
It's like this... whites don't have to do near as much as minorities do to get by. We have to jump higher... score better... be light skinned... talk white... etc. It's a game all minorities play.
Not racist... just telling it like it is.

Pardon the pun, but that's a pretty black and white way of looking at things. I'm sure there's plenty of black people who grow up with advantages other white people don't.
