How is that not selection bias if you only ask your friends which I presume you met through school or work?
These friends have already overcome the hurdles that minorities have to go through.
Of course it's selection bias and that's why I specifically did not generalize their case, but I'm not sure what "hurdles they had to go through" if they basically said they had none?
In the end you'll find that it's the classic divide between Europe and America, seeing society as different classes versus different "races".

Many statements are selection bias or apex fallacy. The author of the original article talks about $20m donations as though that's the case for the majority of white people, instead of just a rounding error. What's worse is assuming that an observation must be selection bias, when selection bias needs demonstrating.
