If you are not obviously white (a la the aforementioned Family Guy color chart), and even if you are but live in a multiethnic area, do yourself a favor and get a passport. Carry it with you whenever you leave your residence.

I'm Asian American (born here) but have always been mistaken as Hispanic (ever since my early teenage years) and I'm already thinking of carrying my passport with me starting on Trump's first day.

At which point they'll claim it's fake or you stole it. There is no way out of this if they want to throw you in a cage.

Same goes if you're obviously white but have family members who are not.
