Ha, sure, that might hold up in a text book, but in reality it boils down to individuals and their own feelings and actions. Of course there is more of a systematic racial history among whites, but i think it's foolish to say a minority can't be racist simply because the numbers aren't in their favour.
One of the biggest racial incidents in NY's history was the Crown Heights riots....a clash between Blacks and Hasidic Jews that once in a while still surfaces today. When two minorities clash (and who's been oppressed more than blacks and jews!), who's at fault? Joe McWhitey?
