Answer: someone who is from the West and whose parents are from the West.

Based on context, the phrase that you want to explain is "second-generation Okie." An Okie is a native of the state of Oklahoma. The term has occasionally been used in a derogatory way, in particular during the 1920s and 1930s. It was used to describe poor farmers from the West that had to move due to the problems of the "Dust Bowl." The fact that this person, moreover, is a "second-generation Okie" means that the person's parents were also originally from the West.
