This event is not strictly about race. It was part of a larger pattern of violence after WWI. The Ametican Expeditionary Force was mostly White, and they came back to find their jobs had been given to Blacks. These were men hardened and accustomed to violence. Many found their families harmed because of no money, lost of ther homes; they found Blacks there in those jobs and in some cases their homes. The wealthy and political figures didn't do anything to help those veterans; instead they ignored or even supported racist groups because it distracted from the wealthy and politicians. So, yes the event was racist, but it had more than just racism.
