Ah.... there goes my American Dream! At least you said it.

Why not call themselves WASP-Americans?

The reference to ethnicity and origin is a positive affirmation with regard to diversity - one chosen by the minorities themselves. Your cartoon reflects nothing to do with this conversation except perhaps how far we've come. What is so hard to understand about that?

This is a very young country with many diverse cultures. Most of us know where we are descended from ..... and are proud of it. What is your issue with that? How can something that makes people feel good about themselves be divisive? It is an attempt to encourage the acceptance of diversity. MAYBE assimilation is not the goal of everybody that lives and/or immigrates here.
