Indeed ingrained sense of inferiority at a personal or group level is a horrendous obstacle to overcome but that's the point of outreach and positive discrimination efforts (albeit they need to be well judged).
Entitlement is something also to be banished but that is a problem for the white UK populace to address amongst themselves as a society far more urgently not just those who justifiably are entitled to some affirmative action because of past and persisting prejudices and acts of subjugation.
Our efforts to elevate all children in schools isn't supported by any number of inadequacies that are perpetuated outside of them. It is the wilfully piecemeal approach from all stripes of local and national governments that was and is designed to fail. You cannot raise new generations of achievers from the previously "forgotten" and downtrodden by failing to coordinate all aspects of support for their deficient lifestyles.
If you succeed there, you cannot employ these now "entitled" highly capable individuals without industries and opportunities that are seen as worthwhile, that means recognising all necessary roles in a successfully functioning society, it means "decelebretising" vacuous and vain occupations which do nothing to improve the function of a healthy and productive society and much to inhibit it. Alas this is all popularised as anti-capitalist and anathema to freedom (aka how to be selfish and not be judged), sjws aren't the problem it's the long-established and entrenched asjws in control that are.
Coordination necessitates cooperation, collaboration and thus a societal effort to not only support the unfairly treated but to discriminate against those who fail to cooperate and collaborate regardless of their position in society.
I don't see why any sense of entitlement in the White community is any more or less pernicious than it would be in the Black community? It's always undesirable if you strive for a meritocratic society, wherever you find it.
For the many years before the higher levels of immigration into the UK from the mid-20th Century onwards, the indigenous White, 'working class' population was treated like shit and in many cases, effectively on a par with slavery in all but name. Be that the Agrarian system pre-Industrial Revolution, or after, working in a sweatshop factory or down a coalmine with no real alternative whatsoever, depending on where you lived. Six yr-old kids going up chimneys as recently as Victorian times. It was often a life of grim servitude. I wouldn't compare that with being snatched and effectively raped from your own country but it isn't a lot better.
It seems to me that so much of the bad feeling that the Black community in particular have in relation to their place within the UK, is to do with their background of Slavery. And that has been highlighted very much over the past few weeks. There are many ethnic minorities in the UK, and the Black community are far from being the biggest group at around 3% of the total UK population. I won't suggest for one moment that there hasn't been bad racism in the past, and that it doesn't still exist, but there certainly seems to be a deep-down feeling of hurt and resentment that the Black community feels when compared with other ethnic racial groups. And this is when they are living in very similar conditions, often in the same cities. Along with many Whites too of course.
I really don't know what the answer is to that, but I think it's certainly the case that at some point there needs to be a bit of 'give' from that underlying standpoint. It was 250yrs ago and what happens now seems to keep being linked with what happened then. At what point will that end? I don't take any pleasure in saying this (and it's my opinion of course) but it does seem very obvious to me that change in attitudes can't all come from one side.
There'll be a growing feeling of 'special treatment being dished out' if we're not careful and in the first instance the usual Right Wing nutters will start to come out of the woodwork. But more worrying than that is that feeling spreading further.
