My mother immigrated in 1974 from the Philippines and learned English from watching television. My mother’s family had to leave the country because the dictator’s ruling wasn’t safe for them. She met my father, who was born American with Chinese blood from my great-grandmother. My father’s grandfather from his mother’s side hated him because of his Asian blood. After my parents married and had me and my sister, they taught us to accept others for who they are no matter where they came from and what runs in their blood. They taught me what it means to be human. They taught me what it means to be equal. I am the American way!! -- source link
