Think about:Glenn C. Loury, in his essay “Free at Last? A Personal Perspective on Race and Identity in America,” reflects on “what it mean[s] to be genuinely black” in America (108). Though he acknowledges the importance of his race in forming his identity, he ultimately asserts that race alone is not “sufficiently rich to give meaning and definition to [his] life,” asserting that he is also “a child of God, created in his image. . . a husband, a father, a son, a teacher, an intellectual, a Christian, a citizen” (Loury 109). Write about:Make a specific, reasoned argument about how race or cultural/ethnic heritage contribute to your own identity as an individual.In what way does race or ethnic/cultural heritage contribute to your experience as a human, how you view yourself, how you interact with others? Include concrete examples from your life and reference at least two essays.
