As adults, I don't think so. I've posted here about how different elements of my upbringing inadvertently and unintentionally introduced racist biases into my thinking. The positive side is what I learned from that and what I did to overcome those biases and realize how ridiculous they are. On the other hand, my mom would probably say she isn't racially biased while half of what she says that's race related is or might as well be prefaced with "I don't mean to sound racist, but ..." which is invariably an indication that the person talking has serious racial biases.
