Who Are We: Windows, Mirrors & Identity

As you read your choice text, reflect on the following essential questions:

• • Is this text a mirror or a window for my identities?

  • How do the stories we tell about ourselves and others shape our identities and reinforce perceptions?

  • What is the meaning of race for ourselves, others, and society? What does learning about race teach us about the power and impact of our choices today? 

  • What can we do to expand our vision of others and dismantle stereotypes, and in doing so, better come to understand ourselves?
