The opportunities are more often that not, there for people to take advantage of.
1st opportunity: School choice.
2nd: Pay these kids a stipend to go to vocational school making it contingent on no criminal activity or kids out of wedlock.
3rd: Economic opportunity zones, where regulations are relaxed and taxes are suspended.

You forgot one:
After first kid out of wedlock, offer $5K cash for irreversible sterilization.

Honestly, I think that nepotism plays a bigger role in corporate American than anything else. My husband works for a very big international company and it does seem that women get promoted more than men in his region (not to say he hasn't been promoted because he certainly has, repeatedly).
Sometimes there are certain perks a business can get from hiring certain demographics, but its also clear that most businesses don't take advantage of all of them. I'm not familiar with any incentives to hire women or minorities. That's not to say they don't exist, I'm just not familiar with them.
Most (if not all) companies have policies specific to eliminating nepotism. Maybe not 100% effective, but nepotism is a drop in the bucket in terms of "privilege" in 2024.

Then why are you so convinced there's white/male privilege at the expense of POC/females?
Moreover, I have good news for you. You no longer have to be concerned about a lack of privilege for persons of color and women. They hold the privilege today.
And it's not just corporate America. Med schools and law schools are disproportionately not white and not male. Did you know this?
Before you think I believe white males are victims. I don't. My thesis here is your white/male privilege argument is inconsistent with facts, at least where American business and American education is concerned. My view is in the long run, people pretty much get what they deserve and when you warp markets, there are as many opportunities that open up as doors are shut.

How long has this been true?

Thanks again for proving my point.
Does it matter?
A problem has apparently been solved (at the expense of those White Men you hate), but instead of being happy your answer is "Yeah, but how long"....
You don't want solutions, you want a punching bag and an excuse for your failures.

I was put out of the running for two federal jobs, once in the 80s and one in 1997 because I was not a minority or veteran
The FAA test in the 80s rewarded minorities and veterans points over white males. The fedGov definitely has a race based hiring system.

Why would you assume she failed at anything? She has a college degree and a job. I know this is a foreign concept but maybe she is talking about people other than herself that might deal with disadvantages.

If someone says their kids are going hungry they need to be taken from the parents
Who should remove them from the home?
Where should the kids go after they are removed from their homes?

The only acceptable solutions are "more money."
Shes on record as claiming she hates school choice, which is 100% necessary to break the cycle of poverty.
Poverty is a weapon for the left to use, they need more of it, not less.
