Hi! I don’t know (or think) that anyone will ever see this, but I just wanted to say that, Melissa King, you are one of my heroes. As a questioning, closeted, Asian girl it means the world to me to see someone who shares parts of my identity successful and proud in the world. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
I'm black , I notice the comments are cut off on some videos. As a minority you have got to have thick skin , to be successful . It seems this channel plays to the tune of one side , if we don't like it we cut it out. I like reading negative and positive comments gives me a feel of the social climate. I feel like when comments are cut out your know better then the opposing side.You want it to be one way, your way. THAT is not FAIR
I don't see how being proud to be Chinese negates being proud to be an American as well. The two aren't mutually exclusive. America was built by immigrants.
@@lamaupin8014 It depends on the state. Most states (especially in the mid west) were built my Europeans. A quick reference to any wikipedia article can confirm that. It just seems that if more immigrants called themselves American rather than inserting another country in front of that beforehand then they would be taken more seriously as Americans.
@@IanWu276 You say most states were built by Europeans as if Europeans can't be immigrants too... Seven of the 39 men who signed the Constitution of the United States of America were first-generation immigrants. Most of the Founding Fathers themselves were second-generation immigrants from Britain. Even if you ignore the labor of non-white immigrants (aka the backbone of our early economy), it's indisputable that America was built by immigrants. It's also very possible to take pride in multiple cultures at once. My family takes a lot of pride in being catholic and Italian even though they're 3rd generation. I also take pride in being part of the Air Force and lesbian community. Cultural identities can overlap without cancelling each other out. I would argue they often compliment each other. I'm sure you yourself have multiple cultural identities.
