I’ve experienced almost every one of these scenarios, both as the recipient of vitriol and ignorance and as the daughter being told to stay small and invisible. The last story had me sobbing. This book exactly demonstrates the emotional burdens we have carried as immigrants who identify as Americans but for whom space only exists when it’s convenient for others.
