They eagerly searched for a more clear and different identity, the way the Garcia girls were confused with their identites and cultures showed a lot. Between the change from Dominican republic and the United States they really didnt know what to do. If they were to act the same or if it would be a different life style, actinf different, etc.
They constantly searched for their own identities, as they begin growing up the girls start following what their parents do. The need to fit in america within the American groups and people. They show that they constantly neede help knowing who they were and what they did here, do you agree or disagree?

I think the girls were searching for their identities because the transition from Dominican to American culture can affect people. They probably wanted to fit into both cultures but were caught somewhere in between. I agree that they constantly need help knowing who they are because when they are in America they stick out because they are Spanish and when they're in the DR they are struggling to fit in again.
ReplyDeleteI disagree with that statement. This is so because they really had to struggle between their two personalities in order to find out what they really wanted, and sometimes they made the right choice, but sometimes they didn't. Either way though, they choice to make these choices all by themselves, and they hardly asked their parents, only sometimes. If you ask me, they did a good job making their own decisions.

I think the reason why they had to "switch" their identities in the DR and America because things were different in both countries. Like Danielle said, "in America they stick out because they are Spanish and when they're in the DR they are struggling to fit in again".
