Comment on Why do so many boomers and even some gen x believe so peristently that if you dressup and show up in person anywhere you will get whatever you went there for?

That’s what happened to them. If they were white.
only works for white people, it only works for POCs if they are rich or very affluent, so they have EXTRA fluff on thier resume.
For POC with white-passing names maybe.
Otherwise they just throw out the application and turn them away at the door
I’m pretty sure racism never existed in America, especially not in the Boomer era. They are a well known for being an open minded and accepting generation.
