The guy stepped on his hand, most likely because he stole something. That's actually pretty common in China and a lot of other parts of the world.
.....Racism there is making you pay 100RMB for something that is only worth 10.

Simoans have a colorful approach to teaching kids not to steal....
Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has promised to find and bring home all native Xinjiang children who are straying in other parts of the country, some of whom are stealing or begging for a living.
The move is aimed at helping Xinjiang's vagrant children resume normal lives and restore the region's reputation, as the far western region is notoriously known as a source of "young robbers and thieves" in many cities.

Li said he once saw a boy try and fail to steal a man's wallet. "He was later slapped on the face by a middle-aged woman who seemed to be his employer. He was about 10 years old and looked like a Uyghur [a Xinjiang ethnic minority]."

So you have a grasp on global economics and your saying that most of our manufacturing jobs haven't
been sent overseas? Who said anything about China being rich now? Please enlighten me.
So I guess we should buy everything from China.
Then our country can become a 100% service industry, have alot more unemployment, and then we can have
all our kids in the streets begging... yeh! -end sarcasm-

1... I try to buy as much domestic manufactured products as I can to support our own economy.
Your saying I'm racist because I don't like buying "made in china"?
2... by "these people", I was refering to idiots who treat children like this, wether it was racist, the kid did something wrong, or what have you. Did you notice that I also put "and others like them"?
No... I wasn't speaking of that latter.
You sound like one of those people that wants to read racism into practically anything.

Did you see the ? question mark in the title?
Thats why I put it there, and then clearly stated that I don't know for a fact if this was because he was white.
I think your reading to much into it.
