Abstract
Female immigrant from Hong Kong discusses her immigration experience. She tells stories about her difficulties with speaking English, American perceptions of her based on appearance, and having her degree and work experience recognized in America. She also questions why Americans gather together around race. She goes on to describe how she feels America only has one culture that you must join to be accepted.
