To some extent, yes. Though not always to the benefit of white males any more: some of it directly benefits particular nonwhite groups, or women.
I want to see equality under the law, not a grant of privilege A, B and C to whites and D and E to males countered by F and G to blacks, H, I and J to females, and so forth. Making the system of privilege more complex is not the same thing as making it more equal or fair.
