I upvoted this because I sense your heart is in the right place, despite some misconceptions I believe you hold as far as assigning blames.

All people have their share of evil people, and the way structures work these people will seek exploits to gain the positions of power within the communities they live in. I refuse to take guilt for what others of my skin color have done, or may continue to do. Just as I hold no group of other skin colored people all as being guilty because of crimes from the past or crimes currently being committed by others who have the same hue to their skin.

I am of Irish descent for example, and many of my people were brought here not so voluntarily. Nor was the treatment received very humane, and it is also a fact that Irish people were not granted a lot of say in the doings of the powerful here in the U.S. There were also many Irish who fought on the side of Mexico in the land grab of 1846.

Putting that aside, I would use modern day dynamics under the microscope. The government that demands I pay them x amount of dollars (their claim to my sweat) that in turn are used to force others in lands far away to also pay to their true constituents (business/bankers) is not one I endorse. They don't ask my permission, they dictate I will fund it or be put in a prison.

At some point, group blame will either be the death blow to stopping any form of unification to stop those of evil intent, or it will be shed as we understand it is used to keep us fighting among ourselves while they exploit our dis-ease with one another.

And for what it is worth, these same evil dynasties that are responsible for the horrible crimes you mention target white communities as well. It is not about race with them, it is about their view most of us except their select bloodlines are cattle to be exploited and discarded when no longer useful.

I didn't colonize anything, you didn't colonize anything. I don't owe anyone for the actions of others, and I don't expect anyone to owe me for the actions of others. There is no white privilege, there is wealth privilege. Usually when I see the argument for privilege, it is used in the context of having less violence used against one in the current locality. I would argue that this is not privilege, it is what all free men and women are owed and instead of arguing for it to end, the argument should be on all men and women having the same basic right to be free of violence and obtain their daily bread unmolested.
