"It is not an accident that his parenthetical statement is meant to illustrate what a racist society is: Nazi Germany or Jim Crow America. that is because he only gives credence to biological racism. this particular chapter is an attempt to argue against the concept of cultural racism."

I'm not very sophisticated. I taught at UCB for about five years, hundreds and hundreds of students (mostly the required comp class). Total black students I taught in that time: 4; total hispanic students: 0. These days UCB is about 40% Asian, but I still don't see any black faces.

So, I don't see much of this antiracism.
