I laugh when I hear white people talk about people of color playing "the race card." In this country founded on pure white supremacy and settler colonialism white people have been playing the race card since 1619. The white race card was baked into the Constitution from the beginning, loosened only with the passage of the post-Civil War Amendments. Multiracial democracy is still a goal, not a total reality. If you are opposed to multiracial democracy, just be honest and say so.
