I'm not being insulting, but that sounds an awful lot like "the son should bear the sins of the father".
While I certainly don't disagree that inequalities in the system should change going forward, and arguably have changed at least in the 1st world, but one can hardly hold someone accountable for things they had no control over in the past.
Now the douchebags that actively try to oppress others -or at the very least don't act when they reasonably could have- sure.
Perhaps we're on the same page and I just misunderstood you.
