3. I think your interpretation is inaccurate, as there is nothing structurally or in grammar

"The comment makes it seem like people of color are upset with her..."

I think your interpretation is inaccurate, as there is nothing in the structurally or in grammar pointing specifically to any concern or upset with white people, but rather to a concern (directly relevant to the black community) being dismissed, minimized, denied or trivialized over and over again... until finally voiced by a non-member of the black community-- an implication being that it's not a valid message until or unless said by the white community.
