If they made it a purpose to point out the angel was black, it's because the teller of the story was not black. Nit to mention the profile picture of the man telling the story is a white man...
I get it. Simply pointing out that they have us so on edge about race that people are compelled to point out race in order to illustrate a perceived lack of racism.
I can't speak for how a black person would take this, but when I lived in a predominantly black neighborhood I was singled out for being white. People made false assumptions about me based upon the color of my skin and it was annoying.
To me the post sounds patronizing when the story is simply that a person chose to share their cash with others who had none.
Of all the adjectives in the story, the only description of skin color was the "angel". So we have no way of guessing the agenda.

Same. My fav was “Hey, Dude! where’s your Skateboard!”
Was hilarious. When I responded w “Where the 3 for 10s at?” That was the last of that.
