I needed this message so much. ❤ I’m Chinese and from Canada. In my personal experience, many Asian cultures aren’t the biggest proponents of fostering self esteem and confidence. When I moved out for the first time, my mom basically said that no one would think that I’m Canadian because I have a Chinese face. Instead of advocating for representation, she toed the status quo, which I don’t blame her for because that’s the culture she grew up with, and she didn’t mean any malice. However, I’m working on advocating for positive change and defending and standing up for myself. I refuse to let people tell me who I am.
