I guess I'm "whitewashed" since I dont wear liederhosen and yodel on mountaintops...
their culture is hispanic american culture which is a subculture of american culture. regardless of whether or not they're 4th generation of an immigrant.....who is to say that they don't recognize their roots? history doesn't start with america.
