I think the problem is that people conflate race and genetics. Race is much more of a socio-economic marker than a genetic one.
When race is correlated with some condition, it's important to first correct for socio-economic status, then environmental factors, then look at potential genetic factors. Since race is a much stronger proxy for the former than the latter.
