Re: secondary inspection
No, you don't get pulled to secondary because of skin color but because of nationality or hit on your name when your passport is scanned or because you answered a question incorrected at primarily inspection.

Re: secondary inspection
About 1% of travellers get taken to secondary inspection. CBP would be massively overloaded if they suddenly started sending all men with dark skin to secondary.
Nigerians will continue to receive some prejudice; being from the country which has far and away the worst record of US immigration fraud, innocent Nigerians already get more scrutiny than the average visitor.

Re: secondary inspection
Because I asked you a factual question?
You said you knew in light of recent events, that black people were now going to have problems with security. I asked you if you already know the answer -and just quite how you would know such a thing - is beyond my understanding then why ask the question.
I suspect that because I didn't give you the affirmation you were so clearly seeking, you then suggest I am racist.
Perhaps my friend it is you who is guilty of racism.
But just to prove your point, how about if I say when white folks start blowing up airplanes, then they can expect a little more interest from security, does that whet your appetite a little more?
