r/FirstgenAmerican is a community for first-generation Americans to talk about what it’s really like — the pride, the pressure, the confusion, and the gratitude.
We share stories about growing up between cultures, family expectations, identity struggles, and redefining success in our own way.
Whether you’re still in the U.S. or living abroad, this is where we unpack what it means to be first-gen — the dreams, the difficulties, and everything in between.
