I went out looking for clips that were specifically intended to "reveal" something negative about Rev. Wright. I found the following clip:

The person who posted the clip was clearly bothered by the comments. However, after listening to it more than once, I haven't been able to find a statement that was inaccurate/racist.
In the following clip, Rev. Wright helps to clarify where he's coming from (i.e. black liberation theology).

The comment "I think as a Christian, you should not separate by race in this day and age...we're all supposed to be united under Christ, aren't we?" is a lovely ideal but it is naive.
At 5:50, they really get down to the heart of the matter.
