身份的地图:在多族裔美国中的认同挣扎
身份与族群系列(一) 从华人经验出发,看见移民与原生群体的多重身份议题 文|《之间》博客 系列导语|我们都在“之间” 在这个由多族裔构成的国家,“我是谁”从来不是一个简单的问题。对于许多移民和原生族裔来说,身份认同的挣扎并不只来自自我探索,而更常来自社会的投射与制度的限制。本系列文章将从横向对比出发,梳理不同族群在美国语境下的身份议题;也会回到华人自身,探索我们如何在“之间”生活——在传统与现代之间、在沉默与发声之间、在被定义与自我命名之间。本篇作为开篇,将为你展开一幅多族裔的“身份地图”。

医疗支出全球最高,美国却仍无全民医保
——17.2% GDP 用在医疗上,却还有千万美国人无保险 2024年,美国医疗支出占国内生产总值(GDP)的比重再次突破17.2%,稳居全球第一。这意味着,美国社会在医疗健康上的总投入,比任何国家都要多得多。可令人不解的是:在这样庞大的开销下,仍有约7%到8%的美国人没有任何医疗保险,约合2700万人仍生活在“看不起病”的阴影之中。 为何世界上最富有的国家,却没能为所有人提供基本的医疗保障?这背后,是一场牵动深层制度、利益结构与意识形态的拉锯战。

谁才是真正的赢家?
—— 从中产阶级的视角看《大而美法案》 2025年7月3日,美国国会以218票对214票的微弱优势通过了《One Big Beautiful Bill Act》(简称 OBBBA,中文可称“大而美法案”)。次日,也就是7月4日独立日,总统正式签署了这项法案,为节日庆典添上一抹强烈的政治色彩。 媒体聚焦于这项宏大法案中涵盖的多项政策组合:延续减税、削减社会福利、削减绿色能源补贴、并大幅增加移民执法开支。支持者称其“充满雄心”、“促进经济增长”、“是一场财政纪律的胜利”。 但从像我这样的普通中产阶级视角来看——既非富豪,也非贫困者——这项法案并不令人振奋。它像是一场无声的再分配,把更多的负担转嫁给我们,而把更多的好处留给最顶端的人群。 我们挣得“太多”以致无法获得补助,却又挣得“太少”不足以安心生活。我们认真工作、如实纳税,常常还得照顾老人、抚养孩子,却总被要求“再多承担一点”。而最终真正受益的,却是早已不为生计发愁的少数人。

在国庆烟火之外:我们在美华人的此刻心声
当烟火即将划破夜空,当红白蓝的旗帜在街头巷尾飘扬,当人们准备庆祝美国建国的这一天——我们,也身在其中。 但此刻,我们的心,未必在庆典之中。 作为在美华人,站在这个国庆节前夕,我们感受到的,不仅是节日的热闹与自豪,还有沉甸甸的现实:一个国家理想与现实之间的巨大落差,一场我们常常被排除在外的民主叙事。
