[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I feel like if I choose America I would be mocking those who really do have a cultural identity outside of the US. I asked because you have to submit your country prior to the event. But surely I’m not the only one with this problem? What about American Indians or African Americans who can’t pinpoint a country? [b]I noticed there weren’t any AAs represented at the last multicultural night and I figure they don’t feel welcome either. [/b] Why can’t it be “ancestry night” or similar so that it’s not tied to a country? I had some very interesting ancestors! [/quote] Yeah I’m African American and kind of dreaded these things growing up. Like I don’t know which African country I’m “from” (and don’t care) and it’s just awkward. I’m also mixed so it’s like, what do I do, make a poster about the history of anti-miscegenation laws? Just kind of a weird event for lots of people. But I did enjoy eating all the food everyone else brings![/quote]
