A lot of white people are pretty racist, but they just aren't really aware. When there are any race disparities at all, it's generally a long term result of discrimination with varying level of subtlety. But they're not really the only ones. Generally minorities are pretty racist as well, and it tends to be born from either the said disparity or from the hate they've received over the years.

Some people are very good about like giving that benefit of the doubt. But it's a massive societal problem. Until it's a pretty strong majority in terms of just general people power level (wealth, influence, etc) who aren't willing to be racist, America can't be fixed. They shouldn't be offended either, when they're called out, because it's a pretty obvious truth.

Also it's not as if we literally recently elected a president who ran off a very racist premise to begin with.

I'd like to think that there was more active effort in schools when I went back in the days, but... I dunno in hindsight a lot of racist things got said to me and I just wasn't really aware. Lots of push back against political correctness too, even though they're like the easiest step towards reducing racism.
