If I had to guess, I would say this is why the powers that be were behind the movement to oust Dilma Rousseff.
Some say that people of color can "catch up" through investment. You can read about that claim here:

I disagree. NO ONE can catch up when the rich (mostly white males) can overthrow governments and buy up entire countries. Capitalism only helps the people at the top; everyone else is just cannon fodder and/or muppets.
