Butch's Story: Who Am I?

What will be an ideal response?


Developing racial identity can be complicated for individuals because they must balance self?perceptions, stereotypes and biases, and socialization processes. Racial identity development is
more difficult for people with multiple or mixed racial backgrounds. Butch’s story describes this
complex process, which occurs with people of mixed racial heritage. The listener should pay
close attention to the negotiation process that must occur with each component of Butch’s
racial background, including acceptance from various racial groups, pressures to accommodate
to particular racial groups, and intragroup oppression from racial groups.
