There's a fair bit of evidence that people of all racial groups have more trouble recognizing people of other racial groups especially if they didn't grow up around them. (And as a personal anecdote, one Chinese individual told me that "all you white people look alike") The only substantial difference is that we seem to have a plethora of white authors who tried to tie the phenomenon as they knew it into their pre-existing racism.
