Rusyn American
Rusyn Americans (also known as Carpatho Rusyn Americans or Ruthenian Americans) are North Americans whose ancestors were born in Carpathian Ruthenia. Some Rusyn North Americans identify as Russian Americans or Ukrainian Americans, and Canadians respectively. Since the Revolutions of 1989 there has been a Rusyn national revival both in Europe and North America.
Famous quotes containing the word american:
“Perhaps I am still very much of an American. That is to say, naïve, optimistic, gullible.... In the eyes of a European, what am I but an American to the core, an American who exposes his Americanism like a sore. Like it or not, I am a product of this land of plenty, a believer in superabundance, a believer in miracles.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
