A few weeks ago, I called an Uber to take me to
the Boston airport for a flight home for the holidays. As I slid into the back
seat of the car, the warm intonations(语调) of the driver's accent
washed over me in a familiar way.
I learned that he was a recent West African
immigrant with a few young children, working hard to provide for his family. I
could relate: I am the daughter of two Ethiopian immigrants who made their
share of sacrifices to ensure my success. I told him I was on a college break
and headed home to visit my parents. That's how he found out I went to Harvard.
An approving eye glinted at me in the rearview window, and quickly, we crossed
the boundaries of rider and driver. I became his daughter, all grown up—the
product of his sacrifice.
And then came the fateful question: "What
do you study?" I answered "history and literature" and the pride
in his voice faded, as I knew it might. I didn't even get to add "and
African-American studies" before he cut in, his voice thick with
disappointment, "All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?"
Here I was, his daughter, wasting the biggest
opportunity of her life. He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all
immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are
being generous)—to make money and send money back home. The unspoken demand,
made across generations, which my Uber driver laid out plainly, is simple:
Fulfill your role in the narrative(故事) of upward mobility so
your children can do the same.
I used to feel anxious and backed into a corner
by the questioning, but now as a junior in college, I'm grateful for their
support more than anything. This holiday season, I've promised myself I won't
get annoyed at their inquiries. I won't defensively respond with "but I
plan to go to law school!" when I get unrequested advice. I'll just smile
and nod, and enjoy the warmth of the occasion.
