(The following passage is excerpted from a book published by a Japanese American legal scholar in 2007.) The stereotype that plagued me the most was the portrait of the Asian-American as the perpetual foreigner. I came to hate the question, “Where are you from, really?” that followed my assertion that I had grown up in Boston. I washed away this tincture of foreignness with language. I wish to be careful here, as my pleasure in language feels largely independent of any other identity. Yet my racial identity did spur my will to command English.

Explanation:

Fredrick Douglass uses the biblical reference for a couple of reasons connected to this.

1. It grants legitimacy to the plight of the population as the population that suffered in the bible is respected and sympathized with.
