I don’t see race even mentioned in the part you quoted. What I do see is something along the lines of “if your impression of the U. S. is from television and popular media, West Virginia might not be what you expect”. Reminds me of a co-worker from decades ago whose family asked him if the U. S. is really just like the TV show Dallas. Umm, not in Indiana it’s not.

The part about Biel makes it sound like the Indians were ignorant thirdworlders who didn't know any better.
Okay, thanks for the context. I tried the iOS “long press/lookup...” on Biel and got a mediocre actress and a musician.
