Interestingly enough....yes! Because that prohibition is, itself, firmly rooted in colonial racism..and so the white student is being penalized for presenting his or herself as Other™ and impugning the established social order and place.
The it’s a wash, innit? The school is applying the rules equally, irrespective of a student’s ethnicity, which is pretty much the antithesis of racism. The dress code may have racist undertones (although I’m not fully convinced of that), but the school administration don’t appear to be behaving in a racist manner.
