The crucial question however is not whether some individual members of
the Democratic Party have a racist mindset, but whether the Democratic
Party's current *policies* are racist.

Some workers who are members of labor unions in the USA, have racist
mindsets. But, Marxists should not advocate, on that basis, that
people not join labor unions. If a particular labor union has a racist
policy, then, of course, marxists should advocate staying away from
that labor union.
