American Children

How do the children in Chapter 3 of Paper Daughter act out a microcosm of racism in America? How do you explain this?

The children act out microcosm racism by making fun of her accent. Also they made fun of the fact that she did not know how to speak english. I explain this as simply that people make fun of something thats different. Because she was different they made fun of her.

The childfden in Chapter 3 they made fun of her accent, also they made fun of Chinese men and how their culture and traditional style is to wear ponytails.
So they were saying that Chinese men are "sissies"
