I have never really understood people’s fascination with
trying to figure out or guessing other peoples heritage or ancestry. My own ancestry
is so mixed that I do not have much to identify with so I think that because I
am hesitant to discover my own I have little interest in discovering this part
of others unless it is something that is prompted by them. Though I would not
ask someone about their ancestry I have seen it happen on many occasions and
more often than not the person asked was proud of their heritage and more than
willing to share. However in modern American society there are many people who
are minorities in appearance but do not identify themselves with the culture of
their ancestors. This video gives humorous look at what happens when someone
turns the tables after being asked about what she is.
