“The worst loneliness is to not be comfortable with yourself.” (-Mark Twain) Being a child of immigrant parents who move to American can be hard. There is a lingering feeling of not feeling like a child belongs. They are stuck in the invisible world between where their parents came from, in this specific case, Asia and where the child lives now. It can be difficult to be raised as an Asian American and learning both culture and traditions. Many Asian American kids end up deviating from the Asian culture and embracing the American culture. However, children of immigrants should embrace their own culture in order to keep traditions alive and be proud of who they are.

Previous research reveals that Korean-Americans are considered the most separated from the rest of the society, both culturally and ethnically. Study used Berry (1997)’s strategies of assimilation, integration, separation and marginalization and three main dimensions of cultural orientations; language, identity and behaviors (Choi et al. 2014). Study included youth who are highly integrated in society; born in the US or immigrated at a young age; proficient in both English and mainstream behavior practices whereas their parents known to be culturally separated and the family socialization processes largely Korean (combination of high acculturation and high enculturation, characterizing integration). Researchers used years of residence and nativity

Ideally, immigration to America has been noted as a step in the right direction for several years. The concept of the “American Dream” has been one of the main reasons behind immigrants choosing to leave their hometown and in other cases, changes in government and enslavement has led immigrants to the States. It is no wonder why they fight through battles most would have never known existed. Asian American Thuy Lee, is daughter to immigrant parents who escaped Vietnam during the communist takeover. Her story in particular, was a very detailed experience with words that helped me perfectly envision her family’s hardships on

Written by Margaret K. Pai, the Dreams of Two Yi-min narrates the story of her Korean American family with the main focus on the life journeys of her father and mother, Do In Kwon and Hee Kyung Lee. Much like the majority of the pre-World War II immigrants, the author’s family is marked and characterized by the common perception of the “typical” Asian immigrant status in the early 20th century: low class, lack of English speaking ability, lack of transferable education and skills, and lack of knowledge on the host society’s mainstream networks and institutions (Zhou and Gatewood 120, Zhou 224). Despite living in a foreign land with countless barriers and lack of capital, Kwon lead his wife and children to assimilate culturally,

Being Asian in a racially homogenous school, it was evident that I did not belong. The manners I have learned as child, such as bowing adults, avoiding eye contact, and receiving items from adults using two hands, only helped my difference less subtle. In high school, I was excited to start a bible study class for recent Korean immigrant teenagers. My Korean language skills combined with my, now, more American mannerisms were deemed too American. Even with my efforts, I was eventually rejected from the group as a “Korean wannabe.” At UIC, I automatically sought out other Korean American students. I had initially thought that with our relatively similar upbringings would unite us. I only came to realize that the university’s sole Korean American

Johns Creek is the city of differentiated diversity. With cozy Korean bakeries, grand Indian corner stores, and delectable Japanese restaurants, Johns Creek provides an environment for every culture to feel at home in. Although there are many cultures, everyone is scrunched up together in the city, allowing citizens to feel welcomed. I feel safe in my community and school. Johns Creek is a habitat for many minorities and prejudiced culture who seek haven. 54% of my school constitutes of different cultures allowing me to assimilate other cultures and their interests; however, when I visited Emory for a college visit, I realized that it is not so different from home. The first thing I noticed on the pavement was the words of “Korean Culture Club”

Every year it becomes a bit more difficult for the average person to get onto a plane. Airlines have gone from rushing everyone through the lines without any regard whatsoever; to scrutinizing their skin color, or lack of it.

I fortunately have not had to extend grace to an associate at work. But if I was in that situation I would have to assess the situation and then decide to extend grace or not. Most likely I would show grace and gave the person a second chance. I would hope that the decision I made was the best possible one. Otherwise it would hurt a lot of people at the workplace.

Christianity is the religion based on the life, death and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, also known as the Christ or Messiah. Jesus was a Jewish teacher and prophet who lived in Palestine in the first century CE. He revealed himself to be the Son of God in fulfillment of Hebrew scripture, and taught that the Kingdom of God was imminent, bringing with it forgiveness and new life for all who believed. His claim to be the Messiah roused opposition from religious and political authorities and he was imprisoned and crucified. His followers believe that after his death, Jesus was resurrected before being taken up to heaven.

My return to Korea in the summer of 2001 was nothing short of a culture shock. I was in a country I thought I had learned by heart. It was the country I always rooted my identity and pride from. I wasn’t ready for the shock. I
