Write a two- to three-page essay explaining what you perceive to be the outside world's assumptions and inferences about your ethnic identity or some other characteristic by which people might classify you. For example, you might identify with a national or ethnic group, or you might identify with people having certain physical traits in common, such as being thin, fat, tall, short, bald, blond, etc. You might also identify with a group that is classified by non-physical traits such as professional, political or religious affiliation or identification with a minority gender orientation or interest group. The point here is to be able to identify yourself with a group so that you can then explore and examine the negative or positive automatic assumptions people often apply to such groups.
