My Fiancé can relate to that. He's half Chaldean (Iraqi Catholic) and he got pulled aside at every checkpoint to and from Florida and every Disney Park security check during a one week vacation.
Tonight's edition of #TravellingWhilePoC: White woman ahead of me at empty Sydney airport. Shuffling her bag, can't get her stuff out, she's tripping out.
Me, Brown. Ready. Two laptops already out. Nothing in my pockets. No jewellery.
Who got picked for "random" 
check?

It's so time consuming and always adds a little bitterness, no matter how used to it one is. I'm sorry your fiance goes through this too.

Thanks, you are right it's just tiresome. I'm sorry you have to deal with it too. Have safe & hopefully stress free travels.

I’d pick you to check as well. Your obvious and visible organization means it would be less of a hassle for me. The other lady seems a mess, I don’t want to deal with that all day long. ;)
