Culture and identity has little to do with ancestry or actual ethnicity. It’s strongly correlated but ultimately we are what we were raised to be.

Thank you. A lot of people (not on Lemmy) have just made fun of me for identifying as American with Norwegian roots. It’s not like I said I was more Norwegian than Norwegians born in Norway though or said I was just American and couldn’t be Norwegian-American
