In the Usa you are identified first by your ethnic background.For example"African American"or"Italian American".Why is this?
This surely is a racist situation.
You are American or your not.
Laying claim to your country of blood seems to be an insult and like saying“first i am Italian and secondly i am American”.Just a thought because allegiance should be to the place you are born or naturalised.
