"My mom and dad have taught me a lot of stuff
about my Vietnamese
heritage that's really great...
There are things about my
Vietnamese culture that

people's holidays... Maybe

"Culture is part of each and every one of us.  It's all the special things that make
you part of your family,
part of your school or
neighborhood--part of the
WORLD!"

Daniel Cole
"Lots of people hear the

people they read about in history books.  But there's
a whole lot more to my
being Native American..."
