culture identity paper

1). Examine your own cultural heritage

– Please cite the textbook on the discussion on personal, relational and communal identity. Then use your own words to describe your personal, relational and communal identities.

– For each one of the identities you described, please identity a particular cultural heritage that you are exposed to and explain how this identity is related to that cultural heritage. For instance, you may have a communal identity as a college student. What does it mean to you when it comes to being a college student? Hard-working? Joggling between work and school? Are those notions related to any cultural heritage that you receive?

Specifically, did you establish that identity through avowal? Or ascription? Or a little bit of both? Was the attempt successful? Why or why not?
