The claim in 'Blaxicans' by Richard Rodriguez is that a ethnic title such as Mexican, Chinese, etc, is purely a title given to by others and changes routinely; however, according to Rodrigues, culture plays a bigger role on your own personal identity than ethnicity or race. On line 213 he states, " I come to you as a man of many cultures. I come to you as Chinese." This is not supposed to show an exaggeration but instead he is following the certain demands that it takes to be considered Chinese in the regards of the title or "race." Rodriguez explains how he does live in a place surrounded by others who distinguish themselves as Chinese, how he eats food, the described culture, and even lives in a proclaimed Chinese city. Therefore it would be proper for him to self-title himself as Chinese. Rodriguez also mentions how everyone has the choice to actually choose their ethnicity based off of how they act, the things they value and like to do. He also talks about label and how effective they really are when it comes to identifying a certain group of people in society.
