I grew up on island in Alaska where 40% were first generation immigrants from the Philippines. We all hung out, played sports together, traveled, graduated high school, joined the military, and now are raising our families. Maybe they received prejudice but at the same time those of who were military children weren't accepted as part of the community, seen as outsiders and treated as such. As kids we bonded and formed stronger relations with those around us and didn't let it affect us.
