The use of "White" here is more in the religious sense of white =
clean/pure.

As for "black" being used as a derogatory manner, how about "white
elephant"? However, "whited sepulchre" is racist towards blacks because
it means someone who appears virtuous on the outside (i.e. "white"), but
evil on the inside.
