The question was posed in response to Japanese american internment. If you can't see that and it's ongoing consequences for what it is, then you are choosing to ignore the obvious.

As for my own situation, as I have said, I routinely run into old-boy difficulties which is solely a race creation rather than something administered by the gubmint. However, I would add, that the institutionalization of prejudice is being added to by the TSA and "profiling". We could go on and on about searches/delays, others being more suspicious and how that engenders probs down the line, but I sense those that don't want to believe, won't.
