They operate under the established system, but if racism is about power dynamics, even if they operate in a predominantly white culture these groups still have minority leadership. In their subcultures minorities hold all the power. If they then have the power to discriminate against any race (whether it is the majority race or another minority race), how do they not have the "privilege" of being racist? I'm trying to understand what makes a subculture's power to deny access because of race any different than the culture at large. That's the question I'm asking...
