It's irrelevant if a subset of your ethnicity disapproves of you or doesn't acknowledge your belonging, as your ethnicity is inherent and cannot be negated by others' opinions. By virtue of your ancestral and cultural heritage, you are inherently part of that ethnicity regardless, especially if the reason behind the behavior is basically 'they're not us cuz they're poor' or some similar bullcrap.

Do you talk about 3-4th gen immigrants thinking they are more lets say italian than actual italians in italy?
Or why immigrants refuse to give up their ethnic identity?
Because I never heard about any immigrant in Germany saying he is more of a Turk or Lebanese than Turks or Lebanese in Turkey or Lebanon.

If you talk about them refusing to assimilate into the mainstream culture of the country they migrated too, its very easy.
What is the mainstream culture of capitalist industrial nations?
The entire economic model and impact it has on every aspect in society is based on erasing any cultural and traditional identity.
Everything gets replaced with a popcultural subculture that is based around consuming the music, art, clothing and merchandize that helps you to identify as part of a pop cultural identity.
Most westerners are hypercultural, this means they prefer exotic cultures over their own and to some extend even feel ashamed over their own cultural aspects, why would anyone in his sane mind assimilate to a culture that hates itself and praises foreign culture?
How many westerners think samurais and the edo time in japan are the best thing since sliced bread but couldn't care less about their own history when it comes to knights and medieval europe, well even badmouth medieval europe?
Most right wingers in the West are technically not assimilated to their own modern society and by that culture. Whoever is a practicing christian in the west is almost as disintegrated from mainstream society like a exotic immigrant, as nothing a practising christian believes in or stands for is reflected in the mainstream society.

Id disagree for Germany at least, Immigrants especially 2-4th gen that only know their homecountry from the summer holidays often over idealize their native people and culture as they connect them to the great times during summer holiday and maybe cope with the rejection they get from being foreign in the country they were born in as 3-4th gen immigrants.
