  • Keomany C. Phiakhamta (Iowa State University)

Abstract

More often than not, misunderstandings occur between two different cultures based on someone's ignorance. Due to this racism, discrimination and prejudice are born. This workshop will provide a deep perspective from my experience on how growing up in American society is so dramatic in good and bad ways. It will provide an understanding of Asian families and their ways that affect people's opinions of them. It will also help answer questions and reduce skepticism about Asian culture. The more you understand our ways, the better you understand us.
