Why Your Ethnic Identity And Heritage Matters And Why You Should Care

Introduction:

I'm writing this MyTake to share my thoughts on why I think it is very important to preserve identity and heritage which seems to be kinda lost around the world by many ethnic groups mainly pushed by the elites to water down ethnic pride and unity so they can divide and conquer.

The Importance Of Your Identity.

Your identify is what defines you racialy and what part of people you belong too, without it you will feel lost, awkward and disconnected socially from your ethnic group.

Once an ethnic groups starts to be inclusive and interracially marrying and having kids with people that are not part of their ethnic group and that doesn't physically look like them at all nor anyone in their family they produce kids that will not belong to neither ethnic side fully, thus causing their children to feel in the middle or like they don't really belong to either side which often makes them feel rejected and confused as a result.

Secondly, ethnic traditions will be lost and not appreciated by people that aren't part of your ethnic background, nor share your language.

For example: Me marrying a Chinese or Korean woman most likely won't fit well with my family nor her family since we don't look physically alike and won't have a traditional link connecting us together at all.

My family loves and listens to Hispanic music and they won't want to go to a Chinese party to sit and eat Chinese food while listening to lame Chinese music... 😏 lol

A person of a different background won't hold Hispanic traditions of the like of the celebration of the quinceanera in which a girl is celebrated on this special birthday transitioning from a girl to a young lady. I fully believe to create strong families and communities one must stick with their own kind. People that aren't part of your ethnic background can't fully relate to you nor your family. In the end all it creates is division.

Conclusion:

If you don't care about your ethnic identity, culture and heritage you will lose your sense of pride, love for yourself and your own people and most likely will admire other ethnic groups of people that don't give a damn about your own group of people.

I'm 100% against racism, but never compromise your own ethnic background, identity, pride nor heritage for the sake of being inclusive because in the end you end up washed up with no real pride and self identity of your heritage and self love.
