Description

As people part of a community, how much do we know about ourselves? How much do we know about our neighbors residing in the community? How aware are we of our identity formation and social location? What about their impacts in the community? The problem is we often show up and present a version of who we are or who we think we are and think that's sufficient to be part of a community. Yet we come with so much more. There's only one you in the community, so it's worth rethinking your roots in order to better understand what it means to be part of a community and/or even create communities of belonging.
