That doesn't excuse his prejudice; it does give the background against which he lived. Lovecraft's prejudices were never static throughout his life. As he traveled, met and talked with more people, read more widely, and he saw world events take place, so too did Lovecraft's views change over time.

It has often been put forward that Lovecraft experienced a change of heart during his last few years; if you mean the last 25 years of his life, the years when he was writing and traveling--then yes, his views were challenged and changed, even if he was never not racist by any contemporary standard.
