H. P. Lovecraft was in fact racist. He displays this racism in a number of different contexts and some of his poetry. I cannot post what he really said due to the publishing policy on this website, but I am sure you can figure it out. Here is one of the clearest examples displaying racism:

When, long ago, the gods created Earth,

In love's fair image Man was shaped at birth

The beasts for lesser parts were next designed;

Yet were they too remote for humankind.

To fill the gap, and join the rest to Man

The Olympian host conceiv'd a dever plan

A beast they wrought, in semi-human figure,

Filled it with vice, and called the thing a ******

-H.P. Lovecraft
