of course they can escape it. they just have to change their name. that's what my family did for me, and what i will do for my kids if i have kids. as far as i'm concerned if you have serious professional ambitions in the US, you're being foolish if you keep an 'ethnic' sounding name.

keeping your disadvantageous name and arrogantly shaking your fist at the world to change to suit your political tastes is insane to me.
