“Today, I can look at myself in the mirror and be comfortable in my own skin. I know now that I’m not defined by my ethnicity. I’m Chinese but I was adopted by two white parents, who have shown me nothing but love and support. For the past two years I struggled with finding my identity…I just didn’t know where I fit in or who I fit in with. At Malden High, there are so many different types of people who come from so many different cultural backgrounds. I wasn’t worried about being, ‘Asian’, I was worried about whether I was ‘Asian’ or ‘white’. But, I realized that society needs to get rid of defining people by their race. We, as humans, are so much more than that. We are people first. We are our personalities, we are our actions, we are our experiences. Your race shouldn’t define who you are, it should only be a word that describes where you come from. If there’s anything I’ve learned, it’s that I am not my ethnicity. I am more than my appearance. We all are.” #humansofmaldenhigh
