America is having a period where we are redefining our mental picture of what an "American" is. In the mid 19th century, we had to mentally adjust to including Germans and Irish. In the late 19th and early 20th century, we struggled with mentally including Eastern and Southern Europeans, mostly Catholics and Jews, in the mix. Now it's Muslims and Asians. We'll get over it.
