Edit an 4 pages essay (Narrative Essay)
Texts:
Caitlin Yoshiko Kandil: “After 50 Years of ‘Asian American’…”
Paulo Freire: Pedagogy of the Oppressed, “Banking Concept of Education.”
Beverly Tatum: Why are all the black kids sitting together in the cafeteria? “The Complexities
of Identity.”
Russell Jeung: Mountain Movers, “Introduction.”
Context:
Tatum explains that all people possess multiple identities which are shaped by and embedded in our “social, cultural, and historic contexts.” She also notes that our consciousness of these identities and their meanings develop through self-reflection over time. Through Freire, we learned that critical consciousness entails not only the “emergence of consciousness” but also a “critical intervention in reality.”
On a parallel track, we learned from Kandil and Jeung that the term “Asian American” can be traced back to a specific political, cultural, and social intersection in U.S. history. The Asian American identity, then, was created by people who found it necessary to assert an autonomous identity against oppressive forces.

5. How has your identity consciousness developed over time?
