    The town that a grew up in was a lot like the Kansas city joke. Now that I live in a large city, I'm hyper aware of diversity and want to know everything about about cultural food and customs. But I'm also scared to death I'll stare or say something wrong because I didn't know it was wrong.

      You should travel. The US is not really conducive to learning diversity because you get cancelled for almost anything. We learn from mistakes and experiences. You will never really learn anything especially if it's through fear. Even typing this comment scares me, but I need to let you know. Travelling to other countries especially those very hospitable ones, would really teach you a lot and also enrich your views in life, etc... (and you don't have to walk on eggshells as long as you aren't being an ahole, like some foreigners who think their money can buy everything including a server/employee's dignity.)

My youngest granddaughter is a black belt in taekwondo.
    We loved Martial arts and movies.
    I miss watching those movies with my husband. He passed away 5 years ago.
    I don't think many white people like kimchi. 🤔 I do. I like many different Asian foods.

      The lower your chair number the more seniority and better you are at playing the violin. You are expected to lead the other violinist as needed and even may get solo parts. Most importently you are payed much more.
      But the joke is if he was second or even first chair he would most likly not give that up to make stand up comedy. And of course the typical extrem high expectations of asians.
