While citizenship is conferred primarily based on where one was born (a fact that has little or nothing to do with a person's capabilities, ideas, loyalties, or qualifications) it is in almost all cases serving as a thin veil over institutionalized racism.

I don't think a persons capabilities, ideas, loyalties or qualifications are innate to ones birth either. I don't understand how it serves to institutionalize racism, could you please explain?
