Yeah, so I'm white/Caucasian American but I have an affinity for other cultures and races. I really empathize with black- and Asian-Americans, and get truly pissed off when people say racist things. When I see non-white actors in lead movie roles, I'm really happy (especially Asian-American actors, since the males are always given minor roles usually.)

I feel like I've grown up oblivious to "my own American culture", but I'm not anti-American at all. It just doesn't interest me.

I always read online boards designed for Muslims, Latinos, Jews, Asian-Americans, or Homosexuals-- all 'minority' groups I don't belong to. And even if I lively participate in the conversation, and believe in working towards a less-discriminating America... well, I don't belong with them, do I? It would seem that I've been looking for somewhere, (anywhere?) to belong to. But I don't really belong anywhere.

How can I appreciate my 'own culture' more? Should I even try? Sometimes, I wonder.
