    i understand your sentiment. i consider myself to be pro-american and often suspect that the hyphenation craze stems from anti-american shame that is taught to us in popular culture and various ‘cultural studies’ curriculum. on the other hand, we are a tapestry, and i generally sense that the prefixing and hyphenation is intended to speak to the american side of a person’s identity as well as the other side it’s paired with — both with pride.
