Yep. Because the truth is, there is lots of white anxiety in America because of changing demographics and more pluralism.
But to be somewhat fair, China has a horrible habit of hiding their own dirty laundry, and migrating there isn't easy either, damned near impossible.
Race is an artificial construct made by humans. Racism does exist, but not in a DNA context. There is no racist gene, just humans who group and compete with other groups.
But while it seems right now that America is regressing, when you take in to account the totality of where we started, and the far more vast pluralism protected now, comparatively speaking, we always seem to progress more than we take steps back. But that to me is more a species thing, than a label issue. Humans, as individuals are very capable of compassion, problem has always been, we don't always default to that.
