Hour 2: By Any Other Name (BAON) by Lisa Lewis https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq Your post should contain: 1. Your name in the heading 2. A quote with proper citation 3. What that quote says about identity en-us 2018-01-29 02:08:00 UTC 2026-01-24 11:18:07 UTC hello@padlet.com Mrs. Lewis lisa_lewis https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225468873 "The cotton dress should have looked strange, but all I could think of was that I should ask my mother if I couldn’t wear a dress to school, too, instead of my Indian clothes" (Rau 2).
This quote shows identity from those around you because the Indian girl in her class didn't want to wear Indian clothes, instead she was choosing to adapt to those around her and dress like them in order to fit in. She is finding her identity by conforming to those around her instead of her own culture.

This shows how friends and the people who surround us affect us and how we act because we want to fit in. The  need to fit in forces us to do things that we would not normally do or would not want to do]]> 2018-01-29 16:15:36 UTC https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225705043 Tom Bakala https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225881563 I can’t remember too much about the proceedings in class that day, except for the beginning. The teacher
pointed to me and asked me to stand up. “Now, dear, tell the class your name.”  “Come along,” she said, frowning slightly. “What’s your name, dear?”
“I don’t know,” I said, finally. (Rau 2)

Without a name you don’t have anything. Your name is who you are.  A lot of times your first name is passed down from many generations and is important to your family. A last name also helps you understand where you came from and what your families culture and traditions are.

Premila didn't want to stand out in the crowd so she told her sister to go sit with her class and not with premila. She didn't want to be looked at as an outcast just because her and her sister weren't like all of the other kids so, she wanted to follow the crowd.]]> 2018-01-29 22:38:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225886491 Keegan https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225895841 That first day at school is still, when I think of it, a remarkable one. At that age, if one’s name is changed, one
develops a curious form of dual personality.

This quest shows that the identity that a name gives you is important. When you change someone’s name it changes their personality. It changes the way that they behave or act.

Not, she said, that she minded. But they would be simpler for me to handle.” 
Premila also told her mother about wanting sandwiches, because the other children had them. She said because it was easier, but really she was trying to fit in with the other kids instead of following her own culture of lunches. She’s changing her identity based on the other people in her school.

 This shows how she has her own identity in her self but was forced to live as Cynthia and was able to separate hate and love were Cynthia takes the hate and she holds the love. And that’s how Santha finds her identity within herself]]> 2018-01-30 01:43:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225912755 Jaxon Bak https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225925605 “The enormous black eyes of the little Indian girl from my class looked at my food longingly, so I offered her some. But she only shook her head and plowed her way solemnly through her sandwiches” (Rau 3) 

This quote represents identity from others around you because this girl changed because of others around her. She naturally wants her Indian food, but because others around her do not eat her natural food, she changed with society.]]> 2018-01-30 03:14:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225925605 https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225926819

But she only shook her head and plowed her way solemnly through her sandwiches.”

Even though none of the other Indian kids wanted to keep bring their Indian styled lunches Santha continued to bring them because that’s what she liked to eat. Rather than adapting and eating the food the British provide for them.

I said nothing. 
"Come along," she said, frowning slightly. "What's your name, dear?" 
"I don't know," I said, finally. (Rau 2)

This quote shows that you can get identity through your name when Santha and Premila go to their new school and the headmistress makes them change their names because they're "much too hard for her." (Rau 1). Our names shape our identity. For example, when someone says our names, our attention is instantly locked on them. It makes us happy to see that someone is recognizing us and not just calling us, "hey you." When Santha gets her new, more English name, she felt as if she was becoming a different person at school, like a dual personality. Even just getting a new name fan vastly change who you are and how you act. ]]> 2018-01-30 04:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225935534 Cali Smith https://padlet.com/lisa_lewis/zcpvpy8frsgq/wish/225937717 "I understood it perfectly, and I remember it all very clearly. But I put it
happily away, because it had all happened to a girl called Cynthia, and I never was really particularly interested in her." (Rau,5) 
This is an example of identity from a name because this girl has two different names, Cynthia and Santha, and to her, they are two different people/identities in her eyes. Cynthia is the girl at school, who experiences and adapts to the new environment around her. Cynthia is who she pretends to be, and Cynthia isn't the true her. Santha is the girl she truly is, who follows by her Indian culture and has a flourishing love for her family. This girl is Santha outside of school, where she isn't discouraged about being different.

“But I put it happily away, because it had all happened to a girl called Cynthia, and I never was really particularly interested in her.”
This quote shows identity because she thinks she put some memories a side because she thought they were Cynthia’s memories not hers because she didn’t like when she was Cynthia.

some. But she only shook her head and plowed her way solemnly through her sandwiches." (Rau). This quote shows that even people of the same culture have started too change just to fit in with the cultures around them this is showing how the culture around her is really changing to fit in with more of the other cultures.
