No argument there. In the same span of history, the 13th-15th Amendments, Brown v. Board of Education, and Loving v. Virginia also happened.
As with so many gigantic institutions, the US government is not uniformly supportive of or disruptive of white supremacy, over time or within an era.
The state and the government are not the same thing; the police is and always has been racist and is the enforcers of state power, for example.
I'm afraid I don't know the definition of state you're operating under, so I don't think I can evaluate claims such as "white supremacy is endorsed by the state in the US."
