The times are different today. But ask yourself if every single government program to merge minorities into mainstream American society would have failed unless they were designed to fail, intended to fail, and managed for failure.

You use code words in an attempt to hide your racism and you make laws that weaken the influence of those of color. Immigration and voting laws in particular.
