I come from a pretty strange family.

I definitely think the fact that I come from a multicultural background, my mother living life in a white skin and having white skin privilege from the time I was little, I was aware of that.

I come from a poor family.

My culture comes from everywhere. I'm sick of this notion of nationality, that if you're brought up in the same city or same country you're the same. Even three kids brought up in the same family with the same genes, they are not the same. Just consider a human a human.

I myself am mixed race - my mother is Korean, and my father is an American Jew - so I've always felt other.

My family's from Eastern Europe.

My dad is from Japanese descent, my mom is from Swedish descent and, through marriages and divorces, a pretty multicultural family - a lot of Spanish speakers in the family.

I come from a mixed background - my mom's black, my dad's white - and I traveled around the world.
