Lost Lineages: The Impact of Loss Multigenerational Stories and Finding a Personal Identity
Problem:
Due to slavery, immigration, and misplacements there is a large amount of family lineages that have been lost. Many African Americans, Indigenous, and Immigrants in the United States are affected by the loss of multigenerational stories. Therefore these individuals struggle with reconnecting with creating their own personal Identity and have failed to carry on the legacy of storytelling.
Solution:
Lost Lineages: The impact of loss multigenerational stories and finding a personal identity.
Looking into personal narratives and identity discovery, the breakdown of lost multigenerational stories bring awareness connecting to one's lineage. In searching to create a connection to a lineage, one can also take steps to develop a personal identity from those lost stories. By sharing of personal narratives and helpful resources, this project also brings awareness to viewers who are not affected by the loss of generational stories.
Goal:
My goal is to hopefully expand more on this Thesis.
