....The option to return? Uh.....
Not everyone can afford that plane ticket back to Africa...
But I agree with quee.
Selective acculturation, adopting traits and characteristics essential to surviving in the mainstream atmosphere while retaining non essential cultural values. Like learning the language, laws and social norms but being able to speak the mother tongue at home or celebrate Diwali in two weeks or something like that.
What's the harm with that?
