Well, the people who ruled Plessy vs Ferguson (1896) would very heartily disagree with you.

The idea there was, SHUT UP you fucking 7/8 white n*****, the state making you pay full fare while forcing you to the back of the train is indeed Constitutional, SO SHUT UP!!

And so it was the law of the land, for 5 decades, thanks to states rights conservatives.

They were wrong… The courts allowed the 14th Amendment to be misinterpreted. We are getting better. Or were…. Hard to have faith in the legal system when travesties occur far too often.
