This quote seems to be showing how Wu, an Asian-American is in fact an American but is often looked through or put in the shadows because Wu is a minority. Also, Wu makes a statement of being stared at, as if an Asian person is someone different or some sot of freak. Wu says that among Asians, they are all the same, and normal, and there are no acts of difference, either from other Asians or family. However, once Wu is in front of other people, Americans or most likely whites, Wu feels like being put up on stage and stared at, not admiringly, and often not paid any attention to.
Also, with the second quote, Wu states that people in America believe in individualism, and that raceial differences should not matter, but they also do. Just because people are racially different then they are looked at differently.
