How do we answer this simple question while accounting for all the twists and turns and layers of experience that make up our identity?  How deep do our roots need to go before we can claim to be Amish or Mennonite--or any other particular cultural identity? To help make sense of the patchwork of our lives, we turn to three different ways to understand cultural dynamics and to discuss why we can expect that any two individuals in the same culture will have significantly different experiences.Resources mentioned in the show: Gerald J.
