I need a theme statement for shame. the story is fish cheeks. the story is about a chinese family inviting over a white family. the daughter had a crush on the boy and she was embarrassed about eating the chinese food in front of them. the white family didn’t seem to enjoy the food which made her feel even more embarrassed. when they left the mother said something like you wanna be american on the outside but you must always be chinese. your only shame is to have shame.

Answer and Explanation:

The theme of the text is to renounce oneself and one's own culture. We can see this, because the girl wants to hide the customs of her own culture, Chinese culture, out of shame in being herself in front of the boy she has a crush on.

Our culture builds and shapes our lives in many different ways. Our culture is literally linked to who we are and when we are ashamed of it, we are ashamed of ourselves, our origins and the elements that shape us.
