It seems like you're one of the white-real-Americans the author wrote about. You are right, the article is about feelings (although not only that). You are wrong in that it lacks substance. Feeling dehumanized is a feeling. Saying that an article that describes the procedures that made the author feel dehumanized (but not you, by your words) is insubstantial shows a remarkable lack of empathy. Which, by the way, was the substance and point of the article.
