No, people are concerned when 'kids' call out an innocent action (a glance, let's say) from a teacher a 'microaggression' and have their parents call in and threaten them.
There are countless examples of this kind of behaviour across all of society now. Writing this off with a racist strawman argument that you just invented sounds like a bad faith response to me. Which honestly is one of the tactics (purposefully taking the least generous interpretation) that is so popular among the silence-is-violence crowd.

…you think that I invented separate water fountains for white people and non-white people? Or forcing black people to the back of the bus? Are you that ignorant of US history?
