The problem with globalization is that nationality and race are getting very confusing.
When a Chinese guy marries an Indian gal, and they give birth to a baby in United States, you can see how confusing the whole issue will be.
The baby is an American by birth.
What is the race of the baby? He is a Chinese-Indian American.
When you add in the nationality of the parents, there will be more confusion.
A Chinese guy needs not come from China. A Chinese guy can be a British national. He is the third generation Chinese in Britain.
The Indian gal who is Indian by race may not be Indian by nationality.
She is an Australia citizen, and a second generation Indian.
Their baby can hold dual citizenship. He can be American and UK citizen. He can also be American and Australia citizen.
I think thirty years later, the nationality and race issue will be even more confusing.

That is why most US citizens, regardless of ethnic background just call their selves American.
