Write a scenario of six imaginary friends of yours.

 

1) Write down the initials of six of "your" friends (not to be family members or relatives) in a list, and then next to those initials write down the gender, age, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, highest educational level earned, if disabled, and marital status of each person.

 

2) Reflect on the characteristics of those friends. What do you notice? Are "your" friends diverse in a particular area? To what extent do the friends share the same characteristics as you? What do you make of these observations?

 

3) What role do you think zones of contact, historical memories, myths, shared, narratives and structural influences of power play in "your" friendships.
