> people pick partners based on race. Is that morally wrong?

Wrong, but not illegal.

> What do you mean? Class actions don’t exist?

You can’t have class actions based on pre-existing groups (say, “Italians”). You have to define the group in a way that provides a high level of certainty that all class members were subject to the harm that’s the basis for the suit.
