Chinese parents purposely blind themselves to the reality of what Western
world and white people think about Asians. They are so deluded by their old
view that "America is the land of opportunity"
I feel that a large # of parents come to the USA b/c of their own selfish
reasons, and just use "it's good for the kids" as an excuse.
I think it is the Chinese parents who have roots in China who have the best
of both worlds - they can go back to China anytime and do whatever they
want back there, or they can stay in the USA, enjoy the environment and air,
and avoid discriminating by never stepping outside their Chinese circle.
If you are poor, you can struggle and one day you may be rich.
But if you forget your roots, you can never be rich. Even your own people
won't give a damn about you.
Chinese parents need to realize, hopefully sooner than later, that in
America you can learn about the most advanced technology and thoughts, but
you have to go back to China to be able to put those things in full use.
Being an ABC is just an empty shell. Parents get bragging rights. ABCs get
fresh air, little less work in grade school, but not much else.

I used to think the ABC community needed to fight against white privilege,
and that we should be focusing on fighting against whites.
But now, I think the real issue is that we can't even get our parents to see
our views. That's a real problem. The problem with ABCs is that we don't
really have a strong network of our own. So we have to rely on the power and
influence of China, that's all we really have. But the very people who are
willing to help us, to understand us, to perhaps help us better communicate
with people in China, to better unite, to better understand what the real
struggle is in America for a Chinese-American, are our parents - the same
people who have only seen the bad elements of China but who have no idea
about the darker side of America. They literally believe going to America is
a panacea which cures |
