and since ive already chimed in...
a person's identity is an amalgamation of everything that theyve experienced in life and also of heritage. I grew up in the Philippines, but this didnt stop me from being raised in a very English manner thanks to my father. I feel closer to the english side of my family than I do with the Filipino side and can relate easier with them.
Identity as with people and life is not a black and white thing but full of grey areas that make things interesting and unique. if he wants to be proud of his heritage, let him, im pretty sure its not all he is.
