But I totally agree with this:
Thank you. That is not a racist feeling. It really hurts me when I see someone who has no grasp of his or her culture. Why is that? It is because that culture was lost during the process of Americanizing. Our ancestors learned the ways of this country and everyone who enters should do the same. If I moved to another country I would under no circumstances expect them to accomodate my culture. I would learn their culture, yet never lose sight of my own.
