I Am An American
Our American culture is full of complexity. It truly is a melting pot, yet individual cultures continue to hold fast to belief and tradition.
Of all the truly American cultures is the Native American culture. All others have immigrated to America. When asked, what I am, I chose to reply “American”, although my great grandparents and farther back came from Germany, England and Ireland. Ironically, if I chose to identify with any of those, I am truly an outsider, as in traveling to those countries, I would not belong there. I am an American.
