Personally, I am half-Jewish and half-Mexican-American. I have no problem with most Chinese as long as I don't tell them about my ancestry. If I do, then there are some who believe that there must be something wrong with my thinking; which is fine and dandy - to each his own. However, when I tell other foreign teachers, who I have discovered in my 8 years in China are made up of a majority of secret Catholic nuns, priests, monks, etc. and other denominations, I am immediately classified as confrontational, having a weird point-of-view, and most likely not one of the best teachers that the Chinese should be hiring. I was once fired by one university, because one of my so-called "fellow Americans" claimed that I and the Jews are the ones responsible for 9/11! Obviously, because there were supposedly no Jews in the towers that day due to a forewarning. Of course, none of this is new to any one of us; it has been going on for thousands of years. Good luck for the future!
