I wonder why it's OK for the author to adopt an American cultural identity, while still maintaining their Arab heritage should be left untouched.
I'm not saying there's anything particularly unique about American cultural heritage, other than being a melting pot of different cultural identities.
And at the risk of sounding True 'Merican: Why come here if you don't like cultures blending?
It's irritating to hear people left their home country to escape oppression and significant danger, only to whine and cry about their culture being "taken away" by Americans.
