Fabiana Chiu, a Chinese Peruvian woman, talks about her family origins in Peru and the circumstances that led them there. She talks about how her father tried to protect her and her siblings from racial stereotypes because of their outwardly Chinese appearance. But as a result was just perpetuating a stereotyping of his own. Eventually she journeyed to the United States in search of the "American Dream" because in Peru the corporate structure favored nepotism. She went to school and met her husband in Washington DC. Although she has moved to the US the stereotypes of Asian Latinos is still perpetuated in the Latin countries and those misconceptions are carried over to the US. She further discusses personal identity and how she would like her children to identify themselves if she had any.
