Realization and Self-Discovery

I have come to realize that when I look at the people around me, I never saw anyone like me. I was in first grade when I really came around to seeing myself as different. I was teased before that moment but did not understand where and why that was happening.

Context of the 70s

It was early part of the 70s decade, and Vietnam was slowly coming to a close and people have come to misunderstand the Asian culture and that we were not all one in the same just like European people are not ALL the same—different countries, different culture, different people, and different thinking.

Shared Humanity

We all have one thing in common. We are HUMAN and a very social group. With being human comes making mistakes and learning about each other.
