a good read echoing some of the [sensible] discussion here:
WaPo Opinion piece In Jeremy Lin, a stereotype that should be celebrated "...But isn’t that stereotype — especially the part about studying hard — a very good model to follow? Why should anyone want or need to “overcome” it?... " http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/in-jeremy-lin-a-stereotype-that-should-be-celebrated/2012/02/15/gIQAEynYHR_story.html |
| Another question is what generation are you? Most immigrants assimilate into the US culture and by the second generation they are more like Americans than their original culture. I noticed with some of the more recent Chinese Americans that I know they seem to place more emphasis on their sons than daughters. I did not say all and I do not want to start a cultural war but there are difference based on when your family migrated here. This is the dame for most Americans, Italians, Irish, you name the culture. |
