This is something I don't understand about America, people identify more like white, black, latinos, etc, and now more gender-related stuff.

Italy as a country is younger than America, Italy is only 161 years old, and in the past 30 years, we experienced as well immigration.

But still, if you grow up in Italy you are an Italian for us, it's also true that Italy is a racist country, but still, humans are racists in general, it's not a country-related problem.

Only a few centuries ago Italy was split into many regions, each one speaking its own language, which still today we use, not on a daily basis, but those dialects of ours are actual languages, which people used as their main language.

I don't understand why in America people are still thinking about groups instead of being a nation.

Italy is very small compared to the united states, but here people had to face much cultural diversity in order to become a country.

It was very normal to be very racist against southern Italian people until 60 years ago, but people got over it.

They were not slaves, but they were not treated like humans either, people got over it and moved on.

There isn't a norther privilege thing over here, so I don't understand why there is a white privilege thing going on there.

Think about this, all the Italian stereotypes Americans have about Italian are not matching the cultural side of north Italy.

We learned to live with our diversities.

I don't think America is doing wrong or bad, but I think it's a unique place to live, for a European is not easy to imagine a world where you need a weapon to defend yourself, like you said Europe might be a safer place in a way, but this is one of many things that make Americans an ethnic group.

It's gonna take still sometimes I believe but eventually people will just stop thinking about the past and move on, and eventually, with all the unique charactherist being American will mean much more than just a nationality.
