proud to be american
My tour guide for the horseback riding tour said that his mother was half American. I had a strange moment, thinking about how I never hear Americans say that they are Americans. I always only hear us talk about our nationalities or where we are from but never, "I am American." Strange concept.

I've never heard that before either. But I do say that I'm American unless people say specifically, where are your ancestors from.
ReplyDeleteI have never said that I am American. Ever. Its so strange. I feel like if I say I'm American, it doesn't disclose any useful information because America is a melting pot. I don't know. Its strange.
