In “Ingroup and Outgroup”, David G Myers discusses how identity is often understood in terms of our differenes from others. More particularly, he notes how we understand ourselves as members of groups that are different from other groups. If it is true that our identities are a product of these preceived differences, what does that mean for how we interact with one another across those group differences? What is the attidue that best informs a positive dialogue between or among diverse groups?
In a clear, well-written, thesis-driven essay, discuss how what Myers sess as the ineradicable fact of our social diversity informs our efforts to work and live together. Your essay should build this discussion with referene to at least three other essays from our class from Mill, Emerson, DuBois, Truth, Donne, Hooks and Kilbourne.
