No, they have to learn this too 😄. But of course I agree tha there are innate qualities that guide behaviour. I do see the argument you're making. The reason I think you're wrong is that I think you're mistaking what is for what inevitably must be.

There was a time you'd have thought it was inevitable that we'd hate left-handed people and would have to learn not to. There was a time you'd have thought it was inevitable that we'd hate gay people or Jews or witches or whoever it is and we'd have to learn not to.

But having grown up in a society that's already (mostly) freed itself from these bigotries, we can see that they're not innate at all. We'd have to go about re-learning them if we wanted to consider them natural.

I see no reason at all to believe that racism (and all bigotry) isn't the same. And in fact, the link in the article (and many other historical sources) pinpoints the exact time when this idea about race (by which we really mean skin colour, which is itself a genetically nonsensical way of classifying humans) came into being and how people were more likely to classify themselves before it.

Certainly the idea that one "race" is superior/inferior to another is learned. And not even learned in the classical sense. Scientific evidence runs completely counter to this idea.

We've grown up in a society where racial bigotry still hasn't been unlearned. So it seems natural or inevitable to some. Some, as I point out in the article, even subconsciously support racist ideas when they're the target of them. But this is a sign of our almost limitless capacity to be confused. Not of our innate nature.
