I think it's an interesting but minor subject
Though I'd never heard about it until rightwing commentators started bitching about it, so the video maker has a point.
If you were studying US town planning, sure they'd be some racial dimension to that, but it's a minor influence say compared to the influence of the motor car. how much time do you want to spend on it? the legal system being stacked against blacks I reckon would have been pretty self evident, what with jim crow laws and the like.
But as is usual, panicked white people get all "it wasn't me, I didn't do nothing!" and conservative commentators see an opportunity to play on that until it gets a focus way out of proportion to its importance.
Personally, I think racism and socio-economic inequity are closely linked, and if people focussed more on making the latter better the former would reduce, regardless. As a white person, I know what I'm talking about
