Admittedly, I was a little distracted/falling asleep while I was watching last night, but I got the impression that Sue's claims about the minority characters being under-used by Will were essentially baseless, which is part of why Will was so outraged?
Sue was essentially a way of manipulating the kids against him without really having to make any specific claim, the meta of the episode was that people are often so quick to jump on the racial prejudice bandwagon, that they sometimes don't look to see whether or not it's appropriate?
I had my eyes closed most of the episode, so perhaps I missed something in body language. :S
