Whites are not necessarily "better" than others, but they have benefited from structural advantages throughout history as a result of colonialism, imperialism and discriminatory policies that have allowed them to achieve greater success in many areas. Colonial powers sought to subjugate and exploit communities of color around the globe for centuries in order to gain wealth and power and it's only since then that white communities around the world began rising in economic prosperity. Despite this disparity being rectified by many nations with progressive policies, legacies of these privileges continue to be enjoyed by generations of whites today.

That depends on what you mean by "better". Whites have a cultural legacy stretching back many centuries, and this has led to the development of powerful tools in the areas of science, art and literature. The European diaspora has spread these tools around the world, helping millions of people beyond European communities to become better educated and generally improving their quality of life. For some cultures this influx is very positive, although there have been negative consequences in other parts of the globe due mainly to colonialism. Overall though, it can be said that whites are better at adapting their knowledge to new places than any other group.
