My family’s identity has been formed through our cultural background. In our household, there are six members total; my mother, my father, my three siblings, and I. My family’s ethnicity is strongly based on a Latino culture. Since the day I was born, my family’s heritage still remains alive. Aside from biologically obtaining the traditional Latino heritage, our family has also adopted a minimal of the American culture. It has been a struggle for my parents to keep intact with their norms, beliefs, and practices as they were raised in their home state. Although my siblings and I have become more tied with the American culture than our biological heritage, my mother and father have a major impact on how we were raised due to the way my parents were taught growing up. In our Latino culture, my parents were raised by a strong mother figure; therefore, their expectations were to raise us into becoming strong independent women. In addition, women in my culture are expected to hold high standards of duties; such as, cleaning, cooking, and being nurtures. Unfortunately, if such duties are not maintained, it often leads in being criticized by others in our family. It becomes challenging to understand the views my parent grew up with while growing up with different views that we encounter in the United States. My siblings and I still greatly practice our family’s heritage, but unfortunately we have grew new perspectives being born and raised in the United States.

Cultural identity varies from person to person and To me cultural identity basically means what kind of person you are and the way you see others. it plays a big role in life and there are lots of aspects such as religion, language, racial identity, values and gender.

In the world one lives in today, it has one becoming increasingly diverse; the study of cultural identities will continue to gain traction within the communication discipline and beyond (2016).

What are some of your family traditions? What is your favorite dish your family makes? What are some things you do at family occasions? These are all aspects of cultural identity. Culture to me is ethnicity, traditions, religion, and just stuff related to things like that. Things that have been passed down generations from your bloodline that represent who you are today and your family. My cultural identity reflects religion, food, fashion.

Cultural identity is defined as the belonging to a group sharing alike qualities, such as beliefs and values, food, and clothing. The lessons learned from my culture have greatly influenced my morals, likes and dislikes, and perception of the world.

“Cultural identity is the identity or feeling of belonging to a group. It is part of a person's self-conception and self-perception and is related to nationality, ethnicity, religion, social class, generation, locality or any kind of social group that has its own distinct culture…” what this quote expresses is that everyone has a different cultural identity due to their life style and cultural background. In my point of view social and economic factors influence my cultural identity.

When I hear the words ¨cultural identity¨ the first thing I think of is my religion, my ethnicity, and my family history. I never really looked back at my cultural identity, or (background) some might say. If I were to look back at my cultural identity I would say it’s like a stop light because It constantly changes. When my cultural identity changes it lowers my chances of doing what love which is running.

Cultural identity refers to the feeling belonging to a certain culture that is attributed to the upbringing of an individual in the given culture.

Various cultural identifiers can be used to identify the culture of an individual. These identifiers include nationality, language, location, gender, religious beliefs, history, and ethnicity.

This is likely to happen especially in large cities

Cultural identity is the basis in which identification is used to express different aspects pertaining to identity and heritage. A person's cultural identity may be created by social organization, as well as traditions and customs within their lives. The two aspects that construct my cultural identity are the frequent chores I must complete every day in order to fulfill my behavioral expectations, and the youth group I attend weekly. These aspects are important to my family and me. Therefore, my identity has an immeasurable effect on my upbringing into this multi-cultural world I live in.

Can events, clothing, and food describe who you are in your culture? Growing up I was always ashamed of my culture, being embarrassed of knowing how to speak Spanish and the songs in Spanish that I would always listen to secretly because I did not want to be different from anyone else. But very recently, over the summer, I have learned to embrace and love my culture. I learned a lot about my culture by going to Mexico and attending parties, and seeing the traditions usually over there come and emigrate here.
