Yes and no.

Yes: people inherently have all kinds of biases.

Implicit bias means we're all probably at least a little bit racist

The difference is, that left wingers want to tackle that issue, and right wingers frequently celebrate it as an issue. 

But also no.

These are culturally driven issues, they aren't inherent to who we are as people. 

Plenty of women have biases against other women, absolutely. 

Tribalism is not racism. We are inherently drawn to tribes and those tribes sometimes are defined by race but no, people who aren't racist aren't racist and if racism is defined by tribalism it looses all meaning as a word and real racism is diminished.

Start to think like that and you end up at critical race theory, a horribly racist, division causing load of nonsense. 

Let me guess you have actually no clue what Critical Race Theory is like most people that criticize it.  If it's a load of nonsense, then please explain colonialism, Jim Crow law's, segregation, lynchings, redlining, etc. etc.
