Group membership and self

The groups we belong to shape how we see ourselves and move through the world, but this influence is not fixed or one-directional—we also choose which aspects of group identity to claim, resist, or remake. Understanding this tension matters because it determines whether we experience group membership as liberation, constraint, or something more ambiguous.
