While she is right given the rise of alt-right and the hate groups since Obama's presidency, I'm not sure it is positive tactic. Americans like to pretend racism doesn't exist, it screws up their image and brings up a taboo topic. It is better to bring back Jim Crow with voter ID then to admit any truth.

While any one episode may be ambiguous, what emerges over more than four decades is a narrative arc, a consistent pattern — and I don’t see what else to call it but racism."
