One of the best ways to start to feel connected to your ancestors is by doing family history. There are family history centers all over the world staffed with people who would love nothing more than to help you find your ancestors. If you want to do online research, I would recommend Familysearch.org. You can sign up for a free account which not only gives you access to all their records (which is A LOT) but! they'll give you access to their partner websites as well (things like Ancestry.com and MyHeritage.com).

'White Americans don't have any culture, they're just [normal/boring/generic/empty]. 'Culture' is when you're quaint and exotic and have interesting ethnic foods and holidays." is such a grating bit of nonsense to have somehow become progressive commonsense in a lot of places.

family history culture family search one time I found a news article about an ancestor who had the AUDACITY to dance with a woman in the woods and then he had to marry her because it was the early 1800s in America and he'd been found belligerently drunk on more than one occasion she was his second wife Another time I found an ancestor who's last name was Isnogle which is a pretty brilliant name if you think about it
