We don't favor those values because they are the values of that subset — which is what "doing things to favor white people's values" would mean — but because we think they're right. (No License To Be Human, on a smaller scale.) This is a huge difference.
Given the way I use 'right' this is very nearly tautological. Doing things that favour my values is right by (parallel) definition.
