Belonging Essay with two Texts
English (Standard)
2 Pages • Essays / Projects • Year: Pre-2021
To what extent do different groups to which we belong define who we are? In your answer, refer to your prescribed text and TWO texts of your own choosing. Transcending all personal, social and cultural contexts, belonging is a complex process inherent within humanity where human beings strive to form connections with others. These connections, or lack thereof, are shaped by experiences of acceptance and understanding that define who we are. This is explored in Peter Skrzynecki’s poems Feliks Skrzynecki and 10 Mary Street, Bharati Mukherjee’s essay American Dreamer and Maria Scholte’s photograph “Dutch Migrant” as they capture the migrant experience of various personas, highlighting the struggles that characterise assimilation and how cultural and familial ties facilitate feelings of security and contentment. These texts demonstrate the extent to which an individual’s relationships with various groups ultimately shape their sense of identity.
