Through this book we learned about aspects such as microaggressions, which are \u201ceveryday verbal, nonverbal, and environmental slights, snubs, or insults, whether intentional or unintentional, which communicate &#8230;derogatory, or negative messages to target persons based solely upon their marginalized group membership\u201d, as well as learned about invisibility and hyper-visibility problems. In response, we were asked to interview someone else\u2019s identity and how they may face one of these problems. I decided to interview a young Swedish woman who talked about her invisibility issue. More specifically, she explained how she is always stereotyped and pre-judged as American \u201cwhite-girl\u201d and how her own culture is continuously eclipsed by these pre-judgements.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To read this essay, click the link below:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TanshiM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/TanshiM-Lyrical-Essay.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TanshiM-Lyrical Essay<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The next part of the Citizen Unit took place in Design, where we used Street Photography to help capture the essence of our lyrical essays.
