[quote=Anonymous]When she grew up celebrating the 4th of July, saying the Pledge of Allegiance, and celebrating Veteran's Day and Memorial Day, what did being an American mean to her? Did she imagine growing up, standing on the podium and singing the anthem of Communist China as an Olympic champion? What does that mean to her? As a Chinese-American, I find all of it appalling. We Asian Americans often have to fight so hard to be recognized as American as everyone else. Hearing Gu state that China is her "homeland" and glibly explain that she joined the Chinese team in the name of inclusivity and to bring people together, it makes me ill. Why she is being lauded in news articles, given sponsorships by the likes of Red Bull, Cadillac, etc. is beyond me. All American corporations should pull their sponsorships. [/quote]
