After watching the short film Identity, write a blog post reflecting on how the masks in the film represent the pressure to fit in and the struggle to discover who you really are. Choose one moment from the film that stood out to you and explain why. Then, connect the film’s message to Langston Hughes’ poem “I, Too” and to the mask you are creating in class. What part of your identity do you want your mask to reveal?

 The short film Identity shows how people wear masks to fit in and hide their true selves. The moment that stood out to me was when the girl breaks her mask in the hallway. She chooses to be herself. This connects to Langston Hughes' poem I Too, where the speaker wants to be seen for who he really is. Both the film and the poem remind us that everyone deserves to show their true identity. For my class mask, I want to reveal my creativity, a part of myself I do not always show.


Summary:Watched a short film

Reflection:Learned more about my identity.
