They seem to be talking about the field of Mathematics, not Mathematics itself, right?
If that is the case, of course the history of Math will be marred with racism... if they really want to stretch it that far. But unsurprisingly, the flaw does not lie in Maths... it lies in history/racism itself that carries over the centuries of human history.
If they want Maths to be stop being racist, just start with settling and solving racial issues, instead of bringing maths into this.

Given the world's track record regrading settling and solving you kinda do need to get specific and bring up shit racism brings up to do it properly.
