I hope that OP isn't seriously suggesting that “discrimination” was a factor, it’s too serious an accusation to be thrown around so carelessly.
There are enough past incidents of “unusual” names being erroneously flagged to suggest it's no about irrational human discrimination but about imperfect mostly automated processes.
The policy is about using “real names”, the automated system was obviously tripped and the appeals fell through, imperfect systems don’t imply malice.
Seeing that eventually the issue was resolved and I assume they’ll be more mindful of native American names from now on, is there really a need for name calling and further escalation?
