If requiring a voter ID is racist, doesn't that make anything requiring an ID racist?

Question

If someone wants to open a bank account and can't because they can't get an ID, isn't that racist?

If someone wants to travel and needs an ID to board the plane, train or bus and they can't get an ID, isn't that racist?

If they want to buy tobacco or alcohol and can't because they can't get an ID, isn't that racist?

I can go on with dozens of more things including exercising other rights like our 2nd Amendment right.  Why isn't it racist to require an ID for all these other things???

Some things are rights and some things are privileges. Most things are privileges. Voting is a right.

bank accounts, boarding a plane, train or bus, buying tobacco or alcohol...
none of those things are in the constitution. 
Voting is.
