When non-white stories are told, they are always flagged as such--an exhibition of Islamist scientific inventions or women pioneers or African-American artists.

I once asked Eric Siegel, the Director of the New York Hall of Science, why museums are rarely innovative shining stars on the cutting edge of culture. This is the model that governs most businesses and artistic endeavors. It's incredibly rare for an organization or company to seek deliberate unsustainability.
