For example, prior to Ojieda (2009)’s relocation to the United States, her view on Americano as she called them was scanty and curious. She explains how the children of American neighbors were secluded, fenced, and not much interactive with them. When her dream of living in American finally came to reality, she even became more apprehensive about American culture as compared to her Filipino way of life. In America, she felt like a fish removed from the water and forced to live on dry land. Because of being away from the comforts of her familiar culture, she was very determined to perceive, evaluate, and place American culture in a given cocoon that she did not want her daughter to assimilate it. Similarly, Natadecha-Sponsel explores individualism as an American value, comparing it with his considerably socialist Thai culture. More importantly, the cultural differences between races and ethnicities are more amplified in…
