Social identity

Social identity is a way of understanding ourselves and who we are as part of a group. When we think about our identity, it can be helpful to think about how other people think about us. When we talk about social identity, we're talking about how other groups of people view us based on factors such as race, gender, religion, and more. Social identity is important because it shapes the way we interact with other people and our environment. It helps us figure out what is important to us and how to fit in with the community.
