Publisher's Synopsis
Who am I? It's a common question. But how do we answer it, what does how we answer it mean, and why is the answer even important? Through story, poetry and quotes, this book describes one person's way of understanding who they are and takes the reader on a journey that explores what our identities mean and what the implications of this understanding are for leadership, relationships, self-development, and social change. Drawing on ideas and concepts found in diversity and multiculturalism, as well as philosophy and spirituality, this book prompts reflection and encourages each person to recognize the value of our various identities as well as those of others. It also offers possibilities for dealing with those times when our identities are challenged by others or by society, and encourages readers to share their own story as we build coalitions through our website.
