> It's also been shown in studies that nonviolent felonies are imposed against minorities at a much higher rate, for the same crimes.
This also applies to men, so is it a white matriarchal system oppressing men and minorities?

No, obviously it isn't a matriarchal system. Patriarchy can and does oppress men as well as women, likewise white supremacy can oppress white people even as it's designed to oppress others more.

If you think that patriarchy means "men can do whatever they want without consequence", rather than, "men are in control of the power hierarchy", you don't understand patriarchy.
A hierarchy run by men favors men, but there are still men at the top of that stratification, and men at the bottom.
And guess which of those men go to prison.
The former suggests the entire group somehow has power, which is not the case. While the latter is more limiting. It is not completely irrelevant that only men are in power - if everyone in power was a woman, there would probably be, e.g. cheaper tampons. But it has little effect on most men who are not in power. They are just as oppressed as most women.
