I keep hearing this narrative that the lag in Vaccines doses is due to the Anti-vax / Evangelical / Rural / Mostly Caucasian demographic...

But I keep reading that it's actually the opposite demographics that are not getting vaccinated (for whatever) reasons...

I have no point here - I am just posting what I am reading, and how it's not matching up with the overall narrative of why vaccine rates are lacking.

That has to be compared to nation-wide percentages of racial identification (July 2019 US Census estimates). Note that the census treats Hispanic identity as a separate thing from race:

76.3% - White alone, percent
13.4% - Black or African American alone, percent
1.3% - American Indian and Alaska Native alone, percent
5.9% - Asian alone, percent
0.2% - Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander alone, percent

2.8% - Two or More Races, percent

18.5% - Hispanic or Latino, percent
60.1% - White alone, not Hispanic or Latino, percent
