I do get to decide whether an apology is adequate for *my* offense

Agreed, assuming you wouldn't see your offense as the most important thing :) The sort of situation I'm talking about is:

White Person 1: *racist thing*
POC: That's racist!
WP2: Seconded.
WP1: *apology, kind of*
WP2: Oh wow let's all celebrate how awesome WP1 is for apologising!
POC: That apology wasn't good enough.
WP1: Yes it was! Gee, what do you want, blood?
