American-born Chinese
American-born Chinese (abbreviated as ABC) is a term widely used as an ethnic generational identifier to refer to Chinese people who were born in the United States and received U.S. citizenship due to birthright citizenship in the United States. == Contested usage == In comparison to the term Chinese American, American-born Chinese may not always denote U.S. citizenship, (mainland) Chinese nationals that were born in the United States often renounce their U.S. citizenship due to China prohibiting its citizens from holding multiple citizenships.
