Hey but who's complaining. We get free lessons in bhangra, Reggae n hip hop, and occasionally a flitty, confused grinding too :). I don't wanna be pakhey dancing in lok geet and all..... How come dancing in Lok Geet and all is being PAKHEY? You my friend if Indians have thought just like u than whould u be dancing in Bhangra beat rite now? nope. It seems you are not ABCN if u were than you wouldn't have said that. When they come home, its a different world for them. When they go to school, its different. Their parents try to teach them nepali culture and values etc., which, unless they live in virginia, or texas (densly populalted by Nepalese), could be very confusing to them You are absolutely right but what is the guarentee that growing up in this place makes u much familier with Nepali culture. It all comes to how the parents approach to their kids to teach Nepali culture. As some of us have seen that some Nepali parents bragging that their kids don't know how to speak Nepali as if its some acheivment. At last it goes to both end what is the approach of one halves and how the ohter halves takes it. But i do somewhat agree with Snurp that just showing some nepali movie dance number and eating MOMO and Choyola in Nepali party won't be much help to ABCN's. BTW its cycle Nepali Immigrants have different prespective of ABCN, so the ppl who are living in Nepal holds for those students and immigrants. Its just so funny why we are so divided? why don't we understand our strength? Have to go no further than india to get example how NRI have contributed for her developement.
