Remembering your roots

In Caucasia it seemed that no matter how long Birdie pretended to be Jesse Goldman she never forgot where she came from. Throughout the story whenever someone made a comment about a black person it seemed to really bother Birdie. The one instance that really stood out was on the way back from New York City and Mona had made a comment about the black teenagers. Birdie punched Mona in response to the comment. I feel this really shows that although she may be acting as somone else she still remembers who she truly is.
