Whitey isn't doing the White Man's Burden, anymore

White identity politics is about more than racism
This is the argument Duke political scientist Ashley Jardina makes in her book White Identity Politics. Drawing on a decade of data from American National Election Studies surveys, Jardina claims that white Americans — roughly 30 to 40 percent of them — now identify with their whiteness in a politically meaningful way. Importantly, this racial solidarity doesn’t always overlap with racism, but it does mean that racial identity is becoming a more salient force in American politics.

A new discovery by political scientists, Whitey didn't do it, nor did the Jews while we are on the topic.  So the advice to all the other multiculturals  when you ask for Whitey to fix things, Whitey be be retired, like Jerry Brown.
