"Anyone who is a descendant of a resident of the state before 1968 and was adversely affected before the Fair Housing Act of 1968 is eligible."

I don't see how this is limited to race.

That’s because it’s not. News articles have devolved into chasing clickbait headlines, aiming not just to attract views but also to provoke outrage and distract the public.
