Do you mean that privilege is tied with culture? Then why not just call it that then, that there are cultural impositions such as excluding people from job interviews due to systemic racism? Sounds to me like privilege is doing a lot more lifting than what I understand it as.
I define 'privilege' as innate advantages, such as (inherited) wealth, genetic lottery, gender and skin color, etc.. You know, initial conditions in their environment and their personal characteristics that they had no say in. However, I have no problem with broadening the meaning to encompass actions within cultural norms, nepotism, systemic advantages based on ideological differences (such as "race", gender, education, etc.)
