My name is Annie. A lot of people assume Wu is my last name when they find me on social media since it's @Annie_Wu_22.
My last name is actually Henry, which is the last name of my adoptive family. They chose to incorporate my Chinese last name as my middle name.

I was adopted as a baby and haven't been back to Asia since. I was adopted into a white family in a VERY white town.
Growing up, I never felt different – even though I was usually one of the only non-white children. In fact, I don't even think I realized this most of the time.
