White privilege is just one type of privilege, it's not the only one. Rich white guys get two sorts of privilege - not only are police less likely to stop them because of their race (for instance), if they do get stopped they will be better able to defend themselves in a legal manner (because of their wealth and probable education levels).
Whereas a poor white kid might be less likely to be stopped, but also not really able to defend themselves if they are stopped.
Finally, a poor black kid is more likely to get stopped and not really able to defend themselves if they are stopped.
