That they are victims, childish, unable to manage their affairs, needing to be led and cosseted and caretaken by all-powerful whitey. Thus, the lowering of standards, the bending of the rules to make it easier for black people to improve diversity optics in American institutions.
It's a sort of infantilization, a stripping of dignity, a dehumanization. He is implying that these people believe that white paternalism is the answer to black people's problems - which is an idea that is about as parallel to old-school racism as you can get.
