520 "I Was Their American Dream is at once a coming-of-age
story and a reminder of the thousands of immigrants who
come to America in search for a better life for themselves
and their children. The daughter of parents with
unfulfilled dreams themselves, Malaka navigated her
childhood chasing her parents' ideals, learning to code-
switch between her family's Filipino and Egyptian customs,
adapting to white culture to fit in, crushing on skater
boys, and trying to understand the tension between holding
onto cultural values and trying to be an all-American kid.
Malaka Gharib's triumphant graphic memoir brings to life
her teenage antics and illuminates earnest questions about
identity and culture, while providing thoughtful insight
into the lives of modern immigrants and the generation of
millennial children they raised. Malaka's story is a
heartfelt tribute to the American immigrants who have
invested their future in the promise of the American
dream."--|cAmazon.
