Re-post from my Ning: Readings 1 - Thoughts and Questions

Mapping identity:
Its an interesting reading on how our life experiences affect what we bring into the classroom as educators. I like the mapping exercise which forces one to assess what factors affect one the most. 
Question: How honest is one when doing the self-assessment? Can we really not be biased in that assessment? If someone else does it for us, are they not biased by their own Identity-baggage?
Cycle of Socialization:
This is an interesting reading, and I would like to participate in a  discussion regarding the cycle.
Question: Although I agree with the beginning and first socialization following in this order, how likely if the rest of the cycle to actually follow this cyclical trend?
Adrian Piper : Ideology, Confrontation, and Political Self-Awareness
Although I agree with some of this, I am having difficulties processing this article.
