AM: It’s funny that you use the word Asian-American, because the follow up question is what is Asian American? Any thoughts that come to mind?
1-03: I mean, what do I think about it? …hahaha. I don’t know. I mean, I feel like it doesn’t carry a lot of weight. At least for me. It’s something that I put down if I have to put something down. But I’m not like “yeah, I’m Asian American.” But I guess no one really says that. So I guess it doesn’t really mean a whole lot to me. I usually just say like, you know, my mom grew up in Pennsylvania and my dad’s from Thailand. And that’s how I answer the question and that's it.
