I hate this framing. Harris had too many issues as a candidate for people to keep framing it as she lost because she's black. Yes, there were racists that refused to vote for or voted against her. The same thing happened with Obama, and he still won.
I think the biggest problem for Harris was the way she became the candidate. Biden screwed her over. He never should have ran. They should have had a primary. I honestly believe that if Harris had won the primary and had a full campaign season where she could actually freely campaign and not be limited to taking stances where she had to protect the Biden administration, she would have won.
