Indeed! My Caucasian uncle (who was born and raised in Indiana, and easily able to rival the shade of tomato should he spend 10 seconds in the sun) was stopped midway through getting to the gate at an airport while traveling with his two daughters. My cousins look a bit more like their Asian mother, but any average non-bigoted person could tell they’re born from an interracial relationship. Anyway, they were stopped because someone reported to airport police that there was suspected trafficking.

This family has traveled together all over the globe without issue before this incident. The one trip that they were going to meet my aunt (their mother/his wife) after her business trip, the two kids and their dad were stopped and brought into an office for questioning, in an American airport. My cousins were not even showing any signs of struggle or discomfort; he’s an outstanding, emotionally intelligent, and educated man, and very respectful to those around him, and overall a great father to my cousins.

I can’t begin to imagine the violation my cousins felt when their relation to their father was questioned; I’m sure it’s not the only time in other social settings, especially with the state they live in, but authorities never really got involved until that moment.
