Šmykľavka: 2
let's go back a few years before...
That's my family. My dad is Frederic and he's only french. Next to him, it's my mum, Thuy-Maï. She was born in Vietnam. Next to her, it's my older sister Victoria.
Šmykľavka: 3
As you can see, in my family, our two cultures are mixed, and we're so proud of it!
Šmykľavka: 4
I always used to say that if my grandmother is tired when we arrive, it means we're going to eat well, because she'll have been cooking all night!
Today is Tet: The Vietnamese New Year. My family gets together and we eat all the good things my grandmother and mother have prepared.
Šmykľavka: 5
You see my Grandson, that's our heritage. My mother passed on to me our traditional recipes that her mother had given her over several generations. It must never disappear
Šmykľavka: 6
I'm finally starting to outgrow her
Here children, that's the history of my country and yours too. it's very important to know its history!
Šmykľavka: 7
This is where my mother used to take me every Sunday. You know son, when you grow up you'll be free to choose what religion you want to practice!
I'm starving...
Šmykľavka: 8
Here, it's the pagoda, where we can pray to buddha. In vietnam, they are bigger than here but that's enough
looks boring...
Šmykľavka: 9
it's true that diversity has many advantages! look at this meal !
Šmykľavka: 10
Here are your ancestors. It's thanks to them that our family is here. It's very important to honor them ! In our traditions, we give them food and we pray for them
Šmykľavka: 11
But on the first day of class, everything changed...
Look at this boy and especially his mother, she's yellow !
Šmykľavka: 12
I wasn't ready for that, I didn't think difference was a problem, for me everyone was the same. But now i was ashamed to be asian
I hate school
Šmykľavka: 13
So, I asked my mom why I'm different, why people look at us like that
You know sweetie, I was like you before, it was even worse before ! But you have to remember just one thing: be proud of who you are include your origins. Would you like me to tell you a story?
Šmykľavka: 14
First of all, it's not just a story, it's our story.My grandfather served during the vietnam war against North Vietnamese who were communists. One day, he was alone against an entire regiment...
Šmykľavka: 15
He was imprisoned and tortured, but he won't say anything.
Šmykľavka: 16
But one night he escaped by boat and two weeks later arrived in France, where his wife was waiting for him.
Šmykľavka: 17
arrived here, he was rewarded and he got me
Šmykľavka: 18
So how can you not be proud of your origin after that? Moreover, it brings you a lot of things: you have a double culture, you can cook differents meals, and you know the diversity !
Šmykľavka: 19
I'm so proud to have grown up in a family with diversity, I've been able to discover different traditions, and I intend to pass on these values to my children too !
So now, you know everything about me and what life is like in a multicultural family !
