A question to the Europeans…

I know it’s a running joke that some U.S. born citizens like to identify with their European roots (even if they go back generations) but are generally not accepted as such in Europe. But how do you feel about the first generation—the children of immigrants here, from your countries ? Do you see them as having the right to claim the European identity of their parents even though they’re personally U.S. born ?

I would see it as a positive thing but I wonder if anybody ever does it at all. 😆 I noticed it's rather the other way around and people here love to claim Andy Warhol as ours even if he was born in the USA and probably didn't even care about the culture of his ancestors. I guess there's just a general consensus that this country is too insignificant and internationally unknown that people don't care about claiming it.
