Is there something wrong with being white? You used the term as though people should be ashamed of having white skin.

It's an old phrase that goes back to the early 1900s - it is now generally used as a term relating to a forlorn hope, and has effectively lost its original racist meaning.

Here is the reference: "The term, "the great white hope," reflects the racism and segregation of the era in which Jack Johnson fought. Johnson, the first African American to hold the World Heavyweight Championship title, was one of the best fighters of his generation. Yet, white reaction against Johnson's win and his very public relationships with white women was so strong that, in 1912, the United States Congress, concerned that film scenes of Johnson pummeling white boxers would cause race riots, passed a law making it illegal to transport prizefight films across state lines.[16] "The great white hope" is a reference to the white boxer who many hoped would finally defeat Johnson.
