at least they're not generally 24/7 preoccupied with race
1. Not true of Americans, and
2. Probably a newsflash to all the British people who are subject to discrimination on the basis of race.
British views and issues around race are different from American ones. The article has value, because this point is important and often missed – even if it's not new.
But too many people in the UK use this idea as a "harrumph here in good old Blighty we're above all this American racism nonsense" and give themselves a good pat on the back while ignoring our entirely different and still serious problems.
