Identity
How is our identity formed?
To what extent are we defined by our talents, tastes, and interests? By our membership in a particular ethnic group? Our religion? By the nation in which we live?
Are we limited by the groups to which we belong or can we expand our horizons?
What opportunities do individuals have in our society to expand their horizons?
How does one make the most of those opportunities? ƒ
How do our attitudes and beliefs influence our thinking? How does our thinking affect our actions?
ƒ How can we keep our individuality and still be a part of a group?
How does our tendency to see " us" as unique but " them" as members of groups affect our behavior as well as our attitudes?
Do we welcome or fear members of other groups?
When does fear turn to hate?

Short Story "Real Food" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2007/09/03/real-food
- Adichie, author of the celebrated novel Americanah, explores her heritage and her family through her hatred of garri, a traditional Nigerian food. She finds that not eating the food both frees her and separates her from her family, and this brief story expertly explores what it means to belong to a culture.
