The characters in Steinbeck's novels often speak in the dialects of their regions (usually California) and also in a way that is realistic for their particular place in history (usually the 1930s but also indicative of the time of Steinbeck's death, which is 1968).
As a result of this, racist and other culturally insensitive language is employed in his literature.
However, Steinbeck, as the voice of his work, does not necessarily come off as being insensitive to civil rights.
In fact, in his travel log titled Travels with Charley in Search of America, Steinbeck kicks a man out of his recreational vehicle (which he had named Rocinante as homage to Don Quixote) for regarding him as a "n*gg*r lover."
Coupling this with, say, Crooks in Of Mice and Men, who is a discriminated stable buck, Steinbeck can be said to be sympathetic to civil rights issues.
