I think of you as American

My sister-in-law and I were having a discussion about the word “Hispanic”. I told her I didn’t like the term because it’s too vague. I’m proud of my Mexican heritage. She said “I think of you as American”. I found I like that. I especially like the idea that I have the freedom to have a heritage. As anyone should.
