...from the photography thread...

While I don't consider myself "thems fightin' words" Greek, I was raised as one. My grandmother made my dad get baptized into the Greek Orthodox church, we learned a bit of Greek culture/traditions from the grandmother, learned a little Greek. My fathers background, English and Russian was rarely ever brought up.

So my question to you, since many of you 'mericans are mutts like me, do you identify yourself as one of your multiple nationalities/genetic lines? Can you only claim you are something if you are born there, or can you claim something when you are immersed in the culture? Or only if both your parents are of the same genetic line?

Should we just call it bullshit and say we are 'merican. How many generation mixings does it take to lose ones ability to claim to be anything?
