Racist narratives? Seinfeld has some episodes based on racism. The generally fall into two forms: making fun of racists and having one or more of the cast get accused of racism and hilariously try to prove they’re not.

If anything they’re making fun of the way the label of racist is impossible to get rid of once you’ve been tagged with it. It’s like being committed to a mental hospital and then trying to prove that you’re fine so they should just let you out.

Yeah, that and the racist depictions of Babu, the Chinese postman and restaurant staff, the inexplicably Middle Eastern "Soup Nazi"...the fact that the only time black people ever appear on the show is to tokenize them and make an issue out of their identity...same with the association of Hispanic people with criminality (i.e. the two Puerto Rican guys with the armoir)...that is just off the top of my head...
