Prompt #2
Share with us some of your personal and cultural identities. Please share 6 aspects of yourself with the group. Here are some identity categories, for example:
- Cultural Heritage(s)

- Family
- Race/Ethnicity
- Religion/Religious influences
- Sexual Identity
- Disability Status
- Language Community(-ies)
