So how much should a person change to make their lives or rather the lives of others easier?

Good question. Food for thought.

If I had kids I’d give them white sounding names. Like it or not it affects everything… the example for applying for a job is a strong case.

I have to disagree. If that were true, Barack Hussein Obama wouldn’t be the President. I’d like to think that most of the developed world is past that phase. I remember Ehsan uncle in his interview thread talked about how much racism he had to deal with at workplace back in the day in UK but now people have come a long way. Not saying there’s no more racism or discrimination but it’s not so extreme that people have to hide their identities now. I’d be worried if this is true in your part of the world.
