It does when the current majority no longer has a systemic advantage. Essentially it's saying, I don't want you to say you're sorry, I want things to change.
In a world where nobody feels like they have enough, I don't blame white individuals for being upset by the claim that they are privileged. And I don't think the answer is to take away all advantages from anybody because that's a race to the bottom. But, I do understand how a black American might eventually get frustrated when people display contrition over, for example, police brutality, but it continues to happen disproportionately.
