What is the most important aspect of your identiy? Tell what it is and why.

 Prompt Response : I think some of the most important aspects of my identity are my personal characteristics, my religion, and my culture. I say this because all of these things I hold dear, I feel like without my personal characteristics I would be just like everyone else and it is what makes me different. My religion shows me how to live my life, and what path I want to go down, being strongly connected to my religion allows me to see things in the eyes of a greater behind, without being so in tuned with my religion, I may be headed into the wrong path. Then my culture, being mixed with a lot of different ethnicity's it was kind of hard for me to really say what my culture was, but now that I understand your culture can be a mix of things it allows my to express my love for being Indian, Puerto Rican, and Jamaican. Being mixed I feel allows me to understand the views of so many people, instead of being stuck up on one thing. Being mixed I feel as if I can speak for all, and not just one. My personality is driven off my culture, religion, and personal views. 

 Summary : Today In class we read another poem by Langston Hughes this one was called, " I, Too". After we read and analyzed the peom, we then discussed the identity and culture that we have, we then made a mask that shows our cultural identity and how it impacts us. 

 Reflection : From this lesson, I learned the importance of my nationality and how much it impacts my life, and my personality.
