It can depend on where they are in that country--big city with lots of diversity or small homogeneous town, etc. Plenty of TCKs of color stand out in certain parts of the US, Canada, Europe, etc., even if our passports are from those areas, even if at least one of our parents are from there, etc. It can compound alienation in a way that's different from the "hidden immigrant." A great essay that you might relate to, on being assumed to "fit in" when one doesn't, is Lisa Suhair Majaj's "Boundaries: Arab/American."Lisahttp://aliencitizensoloshow.comnoreply@blogger.com
