How has sense of who you are been shaped by your environment (social institutions) and various ideological beliefs?

 

Growing up in a working-class family of first-generation immigrants working precarious jobs allowed me to understand the struggle of starting from nothing.  It also gave me perspective on how the current economic systems in place keep poor people poor as the rich get wealthier. This is one of the many reasons that I do not believe capitalism, especially unregulated, is the best option for society. In terms of political ideology, I consider myself leftist due to caring about uplifting the working class who are the backbone of any population. My background and upbringing greatly influenced how I rationalize my ideological positions.

The social institutions I grew up with also shaped a large portion of my identity. I moved around Greater Toronto Area many times, giving me experiences with a variety of religions, cultures, and languages. The GTA is the most diverse place in the world, where countless different background convenes and live together. Having firsthand experience with different forms of socialization dependent on each community's culture allowed me to gain an understanding and appreciation for diversity. The largest agent of socialization of my childhood is the religion of Islam. My family is very religious, so I always grew up with Islamic virtues and community ties. As I grew up, I became more distant from religion, however elements of Islam have always shaped who I am as a person.

 

How is identity connected to characteristics of global citizenship by discussing a social issue that personally concerns you?

 

Global citizenship emphasizes building interconnectedness and sharing social responsibility. One social issue that is directly intertwined with my identity and global citizenship is the Israel-Palestine conflict. Palestine is a majority Muslim country that is currently being erased by the apartheid state of Israel. My leftist identity compels me to fight back against oppressive governmental and corporate power, while my Islamic identity shares the pain of fellow Muslims who are under such a regime. This exemplifies how the world is becoming more connected as I am a Bangladeshi-Canadian feeling responsibility to act on a conflict across the world.

1) The social institutions and environments that played a significant role in my life's development have always affected how I see myself. It seemed like the beginning of a long journey to live and grow up in a community that included many people from different backgrounds. I was open to learning about many faiths, cultures, and points of view, all of which formed my beliefs and values as they are now. My experience in the workforce has been very beneficial to me since it has taught me to be tolerant of other people's perspectives and differences in culture, values, religious beliefs, and many other things. In addition, my educational experience brought about other changes to my identity. I left my native country and moved to another country, Canada, where everyone speaks the same language but does so with their unique accent. More individuals from other nations, ethnicities, and religious backgrounds have made themselves known to me, which has enabled me to acquire knowledge and experience on how to get along with and function within this diverse society. They provided the chance for many different points of view, critical analysis, awareness of global events, and a strong desire to follow the laws that society has established. My relationship with my family was another essential aspect that significantly shaped who I am. The home was the key institution that served as the point of departure for the trip. Because of my family, the values of accountability and compassion were the foundation around which I created my identity. I have been influenced ideologically by the popular narratives, which have developed their criteria for success, happiness, love, and family. This has been occurring due to these narratives' effect on society. Most of these stories are influenced by media in some way, either directly or indirectly, influencing our beliefs and how we see ourselves.

 

2)  My identity has a connection to the characteristics of global citizenship, which are exemplified by a society where people have rights like the freedom to speak and express their ideas and the right to practice any religion or belief they choose as long as those rights and obligations are acknowledged and respected by all. The restriction made to certain nations' people's right to free expression is the aspect of social justice that is most personally important for me. It is illegal in several nations for certain parties and persons to openly and publicly criticize the government. Given that this behaviour is referred to as hegemony and is used in many countries
