It seems to me that the idea traditionally defended of endeavoring to maintain existing ethnic balances simply doesn't work any more.
It is not the honor that you take with you, but the heritage you leave behind.
If a race has no history, if it has no worthwhile tradition, it becomes a negligible factor in the thought of the world, and it stands in danger of being exterminated.
Sometimes my ethnicity is relevant, other times not. I definitely get the best of both worlds.
My features are completely ethnic.
You have to stay true to your heritage; that's what your brand is about.
Whatever your ethnicity is, in this life you are going to be on a journey to discover who you are and how you feel about yourself.
Citizenship and ethnicity can become, in certain contexts, restrictive, and perhaps that's one reason I was interested in people who feel compelled to mask their origins and thereby circumvent the restrictions.
I believe race is too heavy a burden to carry into the 21st century. It's time to lay it down. We all came here in different ships, but now we're all in the same boat.
In America, aren't we all supposed to see beyond class, see beyond ethnicity? Are all these lines drawn to set us apart and lock us into groups?
