I have a brother who doesn’t care to teach their child (my niece) our southeast Asian culture—the customs him and I grew up with, what our parents raised us around, the food, the language, etc. He married a white person and she will act like she’s interested in our culture when around us—but not enough where she seeks to learn more.
