I blame it, in no small part, on conditioning. As with so much of the rot in society, it can be traced to entertainment. The Black male has been made into an American cultural archetype; swaggering, muscular, combatative, virile. The media image presented is that of the classic Alpha Male. How do White kids relate to this? Well, they can go a couple of ways. They can become Whiggers, and ape the mannerisms, language, and tribal fashions of their perceived betters.
Or they can join the victim class, so that they have effectively lost the fight before the first punch has even been thrown. In today's cultural climate, the Black adolescent male has the "moral advantage" of being able to instill fear simply because of who he is.
The alternative is to fight back, both culturally and physically (when necessary). To do this successfully, it is first necessary to discard the archetypes that are being forced upon us through media indoctrination.

Question is: How does one fight back or reject the conventional "wisdom" notions without being labeled a racist and thereby diminished de facto? It's dicey enough even discussing these topics on this Forum much less in the "real world". I fear folks are already too brainwashed for any positive results in the near term. The only folks who are willing to take a stand are naturally folks that even I consider extremists. I still think that aside from the excellent distillation you opined that the lack of a Euro-American Identity is part of the problem. Simply put...whites feel no tribal loyalty hardly at all. I'm not even sure we should but it seems we act only out of reaction or defensively...that is those of us who do act at all.
It's obvious from even my own hesitation that the indoctrination of white America has infected even myself making me more defensive about my feelings about racial conflict that I instinctively feel I should harbour. It's vexing...along with abortion and RKBA....the Balkanization of our nation is part of the Holy Trinity of my cultural concerns as a Conservative.
