Women and society In Identities and Social Locations: Who Am I?, I tend to believe the sentiments that identity is fluid since in the course of one’s life, events, socialization and even recognition in the community may determine the life of an individual (Kirk & Okazawa-Rey 101-114). In this case, the individual may be forced to adjust to a new identity. I also agree that identity formation is an ongoing process as various forces shape individual identities (Kirk & Okazawa-Rey 102). This also is reason behind the perception of people based on gender, class, ethnicity or even nationality.
In Perspectives of Native American Women on Race and Gender, I believe that there is a huge need to educate the public on the history of the Black women (Kirk & Okazawa-Rey 101-113). It is evident that the Black women were not favored by their culture and past; thus, placing them at a lower rank than the White women. I am also of the opinion that with exposure and enlightenment the Native American will present double development. It is also evident gender bias has simply been derived from societal perceptions that do not have any valid reasons.
In A Question of Class, I concur with the author that lots of people of a similar class often share their sentiments (Kirk & Okazawa-Rey 123-130). The poor are ashamed of their life and will stick to similar persons such as Dorothy did in her childhood (Kirk & Okazawa-Rey 123-4). I also agree that most people make endless attempts to shift from their lifestyles to others. This explains why the poor are ashamed of their lives and will even attempt to escape their real lifestyles. Some even assume their current statuses to avoid having a real glimpse of their real selves.
