"Hello, My name is ___: How I Learned to Stop Whitewashing Myself" is a short autobiographical story written by Jason Kim in 2017 and which speaks about the experiences of Kim as an Asian immigrant in America, from the time he was 10 and he moved to the U.S with his family, to this day, as an adult. One of the main points of the story is basically how this author, and playwright, learned to grow from hating his differences as an Asian child, to seeing them as a reason to be proud, especially in a country that, for all its diversity, still cannot recognize and accept those who are different. The correct answers, given this story are thus:

1. A: Asian Americans should be encouraged to embrace and celebrate their identities in America. The reason is that Kim develops his story from the child who hated being Asian, and had come to a country that could not understand, or embrace, his differences, so he tried to change himself. However, later in life, those very difficulties, and the changes he is seeing in society to embrace Asian Americans more, encourage him to learn to accept, and teach others like him to do as well, the differences he has as an Asian of Korean origin.

2. D: "My dream... is for our country to...." This would be the best section that supports what was said in question 1. This last sentence is like the closure, and solution that comes to Kim after suffering for so long with his identity, and seeing other children from Asia going through the same. He wants them to embrace who they are, like he did, be proud of that, and not seek to change because others cannot accept their differences. He also wishes for Americans to learn to accept diversity instead of encouraging a change in the child.

3. C: It emphazises how Kim felt ashamed of and rejected his Asian identity. This was the case throughout all of his childhood, and it went so far as for him to wish to generate conflict with his family in order to acquire new characteristics that would turn him into an American, rather than Korean.

4. The correct answer is C. This shows how Kim prefers to Americanize himself in order to blend in, instead of continuing with those Korean traditions that made him different to other Americans.

5. The correct answer is D: contempt, ridicule, or mockery. Kim simply wants to make it clear that he does not want anything to do with what makes him Korean, even if inside he might still like the dish.

6. The definition is A: Very bad, wicked, or evil. This is because Kim, now an adult reminiscing, realizes that what he did to his mother and father was unacceptable and completely mean.
