I feel like this is a topic that deserves it's own discussion post at some point, as far as the biological advantages and disadvantages of this apparent "empathy gene" present in most white people. If not that, then what other source might cause white guilt in our culture. This shit is fascinating to me.

Not genetics. Culture. Specifically, Christian values of compassion and generosity. It's not confined to Caucasians or to Christianity though.
