Thanks, my native friend. Does Indonesian count as native? I'm part that. Does African? My hubby is half that. But I'm also white and European. Are Americans the only ones so polarised do you think? Or does the next generation realize that there's only mixed race on this planet by now? It's an honest question. I don't want to criticize anything you say. What you say needs to be said to superficial people who do not realize where traditions and rituals come from. But I wonder how a young person like you sees this...
