Even though the issues you mention are real, you failed to provide a casual link between the two phenomena in question. "They are telling me I'm responsible for inequality in today's society so I won't go to college"? I'm not buying it.

They may perceive the "you're the problem" message as originating from colleges, or being especially strong there. They may not want to spend four years in an environment like that.
Why would you go to a place that is increasingly expensive, people are increasingly open about how there are alternatives to college, and your professors and other students look down on you for being white and successful?
Here we seem to have identified some factors beyond the boring old "CRT has destroyed education" bullshit. Students who are already "successful" have no need of college whatever their race or gender. College is ridiculously expensive, especially when compared to what was available in e.g. 1970.
