If someone tried to understand you using only your race, what important things would that person miss? Describe at least three other parts of your cultural identity that help make you who you are.

Being Black is one part of my identity, but it does not describe everything about me. My family is important because they have taught me values and helped shape the person I am. My love for baseball is also part of my identity because it has taught me teamwork, discipline, and how to keep working even when things get difficult. Another important part of my identity is my personality and friendships.
