The early American voters were white men with property. Poor men, all women and most males of a darker shade could not usually vote until laws were passed to change the situation.

Lots of groups had a 200 year head start on our family, who only arrived in the early ‘20’s. Compared to them, WE got with the program at the speed of light! We looked around and though we experienced (still experience) some nasty bourgeois xenophobia, we realized we had to assimilate as soon as possible and as fully as possible. They wouldn't dream of squandering the many opportunities by running around whining about how badly we were treated and about what was owed to us....
But now...
Populations who seek and obtain the advantages of this system, but won't assimilate are actually rewarded by the government

And a major point is that laws were changed to more fully involve others.
Had it been so “supremisist”,All others would be simply shut out of white walled cities, left to either develop similar desirable systems or shiver in the darkness.
Western civilization has always been about sharing the benefits...not without hiccups along the way but in the end for the world’s overall advancement.
