General themes from foundational readings:
1. The richness or importance of identity (Alcoff)
2. How identity is challenged by others and/or formed in relation to them (Hegel)
3. Whether identity is divisive or uniting (Marx)
4. Whether our identities can be fully known and/or controlled (Freud)
5. How our identities fit together, either cohesively or fragmented (Mead)
