As for your other question... I'm not sure what skin color has to do with how easily one identifies with and recognizes religious persecution. One doesn't have look back very far in history to find evidence of whites persecuting other whites for religious reasons.
I'm Caucasian, and I hope this doesn't disqualify me from attempting to answer here, but I don't categorize people by color, or religious/nonreligious preference. I see all people as part of the HUMAN RACE. When genocide is committed and when a group is persecuted, I believe, we all suffer for it. A person that doesn't equate the suffering of another to that of a personal loss or, at least, empathize is somehow disconnected... ignorant, possibly, with sociopathic tendencies, IMO.
