“So basically who you are has to do with your roots. Then maybe I should ask how far you have to go back to know your roots. If you found out that your great-grandfather had Chinese blood in him, would you stop being Japanese?”
This hurts. It illustrates how irrational prejudice is, and how harmful it can be to everyone involved. For someone to be weighed, measured, and discarded because of uncontrolled circumstances is more reflective on the ignorant person that would do such a thing. But her fauther was taught that, and she was taught that. But can she let it go to see this beautiful person before her?
