It's a definition that only works in theory, the phrase as a whole is just something to propagate the idea that minorities are somehow privileged for having quota laws in place when it's not. There are more opportunities for white people in this world then there are for black people and that's a fact and those laws are just there to guarantee opportunities for people who would probably not have them otherwise due to the fact that many societies (America especially) are up to their necks in institutional racism.
