It wasn't any better in the 90s. If anything race relations are better now.
Social media caters to exteme viewpoints. The far left and far right get the noise, not people in the middle. People can get into their bubbles where they believe what they believe and if you don't agree with them, you are evil. Already liberal media outlets like ESPN, CNN see the "outrage" on twitter and magnify issues that aren't really important. The result is we are constantly bombarded with hot takes and disneyfication (good vs evil) of every single issue. The middle man doesn't have a voice anymore.
