As we receive "I am ___ but also__" statements, we become more enlightened to hear everyones reaction and ideas of what this project means to them. We have come to find that statements do no have to be so profound or deep in meaning to have powerful effects. Sometimes the most compelling statements are simple and often times mean lots to those who wrote them. Personally, I gain even more respect for the project as time progresses and Clemson's campus becomes more involved.
Statements can be funny, some are serious, many are deep in meaning; but either way they have people talking on campus and that is what we want. Our hope is that Clemson will become comfortable in talking about identity in order to break certain stereotypes and create a more acceptable outlook on those around us. Feel free to comment on our blog and give us your "I am _ but also _" statement.
