Why can't white people openly advocate for quasi segregation? Other races can and they do

I don't know of any organizations that are exclusively white. Some people will say that there are plenty of exclusive country clubs, yacht clubs, skeet clubs, etc. that are basically for whites predicated on the clientele and the geographic location of those clubs. The difference is, if a person of any race wanted to join those exclusive clubs they would have legal recourse to gain access to those snobby clubs.
What's interesting is how black Americans, Hispanic Americans, and I'm sure there are others that can actually call a TV broadcast Black Entertainment TV, or Univision,Telemundo with the understanding that those broadcasts are for a certain racial demographic and it doesn't really include white people.
So now we have colleges conducting separate graduation ceremonies for different races, here's an excerpt from a Washington Examiner article,
It's strange, we white people are considered racist because, well, we're white and some small percentage of our ancestry owned slaves so I guess it's in our DNA. White people can't openly call for segregation for any reason but other races can openly call for segregation if they feel the situation or circumstance call for such measures.
A lot of people believe race relations have deteriorated over the past 10 years, is it because there is a blatant effort to keep racial contentiousness at a high level? Seems most of the racial troubles are blamed on white people but I'm not so sure that's where the blame belongs.....wait, maybe racial division does lie at the feet of white people, yes, white progressive leftists to be more precise.

Graduation used to be for coming together as a class one last time to celebrate academic accomplishments, but today there’s a growing trend for segregated celebrations highlighting race and ethnicity.
A new report by the National Association of Scholars has identified more than 75 schools offering segregated graduations. These supplemental commencement ceremonies are offered in addition to the universities’ regular graduation ceremonies and are not mandatory.
The National Association of Scholars looked at 173 schools and found that 76 of them, or 44%, offer these ceremonies. These range from small private schools to big public universities. Some notable ones include Harvard, UC San Diego, UC Irvine, Arizona State University, Stanford, UC Berkeley, UCLA, and Yale.

I guess nothing is stopping anyone from starting a broadcast station called Pure White TV but I'm sure the crazy leftists would march on D.C. and demand the FCC shut it down.

Im in. I aint skeered to keep things separate, but at this point it's hard to do down the straight white line.
We really do need to force all to earn their way with stopping all the affirmative action. A black billionaire just paid off an all male black graduating class loans. Blacks need to take the training wheels off

Yeah, I'm not advocating for any segregation, my point is we've allowed selective segregation by race excluding of course white people.

All my liberal friends are woke but move to “good schools” it happens to segregate them more than me!

Our diversity is supposed to be our strength.
Yet, liberals push the agenda of diversity and inclusion of everyone except for whites and Christians.
We threw the Klan out, and they're a dumbass bigoted institution anyway. And I've never seen any poster on this board speak support for the kkk.
Yet we, as a country, have watched the forming of the ACLU, NAACP, Black Panthers etc. who preach hate and racial segregation, yet are somehow never called out on it by the mainstream. Leaders like Sharpton and Jesse Jackson who fervently spew support of policies that, in essence, work to the detriment of the black community instead of promoting their advancement.
To say it's bizarre is a gross understatement.

Honest answer.
Its because of the historical context white separation has had in the US. I would classify this as "death by bad precedence".
Historically when whites segregated intentionally, it was to promote white supremacy. It was also to deprive other races of opportunities.
Is it possible to have a segregated white group and NOT be bigoted? The answer is yes.
However, the social stigma from the pre 1980s is so strong that most companies/organizations want to avoid it at all costs.
And here's where we have to face the difference between the logical and the much more powerful emotional. While the separation may benign, it wont be viewed that way by many. Especially if the origin of the segregation was specifically race-based and that attitude died out over time.
I grew up being told (and still know today) that there are some towns Blacks dont visit. Is that saying ALL people in those locations are bad? Of course not. However, reputation is a double edged sword.
The saddest part is that there are productive minorities who fit the muster of being good citizens. But the social factors create a rift that creates doubt. Why live in small town A when you know in larger city B that their are more Blacks/Hispanics, etc. that will accept you.

The problem is that you dont acknowledge white Christians as having their own spaces. They actually have more than the minorities.
Most of the states in the Midwest are predominantly white Christians. As are many counties in the Southern and Northeast US. The liberal media pushes other groups for various reasons, but that isnt a sign that Christians are being attacked.

Jesse Jackson and Sharpton are loathed even in certain segments of the Black community (trust me, it's a thing). However, many of the organizations you mentioned were created as a response to obvious injustices (even by GOP politicians standards) up until the Civil Rights Act of 1965.
Their continued existence is debatable, seeing as they no longer serve their original purpose. In many ways they are subjects of corporate greed.
