I was born and raised in America but I identity myself as 100 percent Asian, 0 percent American. I don't even call myself "Asian American" but rather "Asian who is living in America, for now."

Aside from English, I'm learning multiple Asian languages like Japanese, Mandarin, and Korean.

It was a 2 years journey to wake up me from white supremacy but now I'm here. It feels great; as if I woke up from the matrix.

I find it sad that many Asian American born can't speak their mother's tongue, and that they have an anglo first name (LOL)

Oh well.

I have an anglo first name lmaoooo definitely hate it.

I can only speak the type of Mandarin spoken in homes, if I turned on anything that had something to do with politics I get lost within seconds.

It's cool, just give yourself a Chinese first name and refer yourself to your new Chinese first name when you make new friends.

There's nothing wrong with being American.

There is nothing wrong with being American per se; but if you're an Asian man, (white) Americans NEVER see you as truly American. When people say "American", they think white Anglo man.

By the way, whites raped and murdered Native Indians and stole their land.

Just view as a new American, not White American
