Laurence Yep Zitate

I was born in San Francisco's Chinatown in 1948 but grew up in a black neighborhood. During elementary and middle school, I commuted to a bilingual school in Chinatown. So I did not confront white American culture until high school.

Ich wurde 1948 in San Franciscos Chinatown geboren und bin in einer schwarzen Nachbarschaft aufgewachsen. Während der Grund- und Mittelschule pendelte ich zu einer zweisprachigen Schule in Chinatown. Daher habe ich mich der weißen amerikanischen Kultur bis zur High School nicht gestellt.
