I don't think that was her intention at all. I think she was making a point about the black community and how other racial minority communities are able to support each other, like the indian and chinese communities able to do better.

I think in some ways she was being more racist towards the black community than the white community, by saying that blacks don't stick together. Indians and chinese stick together to make more opportunities for their minority communities, and she was just saying why can't blacks do the same?

I agree it was wrong to blame "white people", but i don't think she was really criticizing white people, she was more criticizing black community for not being able to work together to lift themselves up.
