Material conditions have a huge impact on racism. Imagine if food housing education and health care were available...
I don't believe the bloodlust of amerikkkans toward the middle east would be reduced even if those conditions existed.

The small business tyrants with a brand new truck every two years a vacation home and a business they have to work at 20 hours a week are some of the most vitulantly racist people in this country.

Same with trades, guys making more money than 90% of the town who haven't seen a minority in 8 years will tell you a joke where the punch line is just a slur within 10 minutes of meeting you.
