Largely, well because he is black he didn't start off with white privilege and doesn't look at everything through this lens. He largely understands the problems of being a minority, so it doesn't need to be explained to him. This makes it easier to make progress. It's OK because the amount of alleged racism against whites doesn't even come close to the level of that which is against blacks. If it did, you wouldn't be complaining about such a trivial thing as this, you'd be complaining about lower earning potential, fewer opportunities and lack of investment in your youth.
