Furthermore, identity thieves send deceptive emails that seem to come from legitimate institutions. The email will ask people to verify information such as “name, address, account number, PIN, and SSS,” which is known as phishing (Combating Identity Theft, 2007). Another tactic that is employed is pretexting, which is the “request [of] customer account information” by contacting individuals over the phone pretending to be “a financial institution or telephone company” (Combating Identity Theft, 2007).

While another technique used is skimming. Skimming involves the utilization of a skimmer, which is “an inexpensive electronic device with a slot through which a person passes or ‘skims’ a credit or debit card… the skimmer reads and records the magnetically encoded data on the magnetic stripe on the back of the card. That data then can be downloaded either to make fraudulent copies of real cards, or to make purchases when the card is not required, such as online [transactions]” (Combating Identity Theft, 2007).

Targeted victims of this unfortunate circumstance find out- a little bit too late- about these illegal activities. It is only when they receive their bank statements or get a phone call from credit companies that they become aware of the dire situation they are in. By then irreparable damages have been done already. The situation is aggravated because “they do not get effective help from the credit grantors, banks, and the CRA’s. They describe difficulty in reaching the credit reporting agencies, and tell how they are treated disbelievingly by some creditors.

Victims also report that flagging their credit report for fraud doesn’t always stop the impostor from obtaining more credit” (Identity Theft: How it Happens, 2000). Also, to make matters worst, victims “spend a great deal of time cleaning up the mess…. many… tak[e] the day or the week off work so they can make the necessary phone calls, write the letters, and get affidavits notarized. This costs them money as well… In a recent survey we conducted with CALPIRG, we found the average amount of time spent by victims to regain their financial health was 175 hours” (Identity Theft: How it Happens, 2000).

Hence, it is not surprising to encounter victims who feel helpless, frustrated and angry. Federal laws have been established to combat cybercrime such as identity theft. The violation of the Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act (18 USC 1028), is when “someone knowingly uses the identification of another person with the intention to commit any unlawful activity,” constitutes as a federal felony (Identity Theft: How it Happens, 2000). The US Department of Justice handles such crimes (Identity Theft: How it Happens, 2000).

Moreover, the 18 U. S. C 1028, states that “ [f]raud and related activity in connection with identification documents, authentication features and information… [d]efines the knowing production, transfer and possession of false identification documents as crime. This statute also outlaws the possession of document-making implements such as computer files, hardware and software” (Identity Theft: How it Happens, 2000). In addition, imprisonment can also ensue for the offender. The Aggravated Identity Theft (18 U. S. C.

This act covers instance wherein a person “knowingly transfers, possesses or uses, without lawful authority, a means of identification of another person during and in relation to any felony violation of certain enumerated federal offenses’ ” (Cybercrime Public and Private Entities, 2007). Also, 18 U. S. C. 1029 prohibits the “knowing production, use or trafficking in counterfeit or unauthorized access devices such as any card, plate code, account number, electronic serial number…

Despite these measures in place, cybercrime is still a massive problem. This is due to the fact that hiring and retaining skilled investigators is a daunting task because private companies offer a higher salary and better benefits than the federal government (Cybercrime Public and Private Entities, 2007).

Also, “staff rotation policies in place at certain law enforcement organizations” make it difficult for law enforcers to fully attend and address the situation properly (Cybercrime Public and Private Entities, 2007). Besides, it takes a year to train an investigator to be competent enough to handle his own case (Cybercrime Public and Private Entities, 2007). Individuals have to be trained because federal agencies lack resources to employ professional investigators (Cybercrime Public and Private Entities, 2007).
Topic: identity

In addition, multiple jurisdictions in place makes the matter even more complicated to handle (Cybercrime Public and Private Entities, 2007). “Law[s] used to address cybercrime differ across states and nations. For example, not all US states have anti-spam laws or anti-spyware laws… Further, jurisdictional boundaries can limit the actions that federal, state, and local law enforcement can take to investigate cybercrime that crosses local, regional and national borders” (Cybercrime Public and Private Entities, 2007).

Lastly, the complex nature of tracking an identify theft also poses a problem. “[C]ybercriminals can take steps to remain anonymous, making it difficult, if not impossible, to attribute a crime to them… [this is because] [c]ybercriminals can be physically located in one nation or state, direct their crime through computers in multiple nations or states and store evidence for the crime on computers in yet another nation or state” (Cybercrime Public and Private Entities, 2007).
Topic: identity

Hence, cybercriminals are rarely caught and if they are apprehended, the “penalties are minimal… Community service and parole are the usual sentence” (Identity Theft: How it Happens, 2000). Cybercriminals exist because engaging in identity theft enables them to acquire money and benefits such as material assets, medical insurance and tax returns without working conventionally to obtain them. Also, they are rarely caught because the system in place is disorganized and ineffective; that is why identity theft remains a big problem.

Discuss English band Blur’s textual representations of British national identity, and analyse to what extent these representations are ideologically constructed. National Identity has become increasingly problematic to define. Hartley: “The concept of identity is now often viewed as relying on shared characteristics that are cultural rather than natural/biological. ” (Communication, Cultural and Media Studies, The Key Concepts, p101) Thus, the major factors defining identity are the culturally constructed concepts of class, gender and ethnicity.
Topic: identity

Representations of race however, are always cultural. Using the definition of culture, and by extension cultural to be: “The production and circulation of sense, meaning and consciousness” (Hartley, p51) one could state that “National identity is the sum of meanings that can be made from the traits of a nations people. ” Therein lies the difficulty of ascertaining national identity; which group of people will be used to surmise an identity that is all-inclusive for a multitude of different people?
Topic: identity

The process of globalisation and its culturally homogenising effect, has dealt the very concept of nation a blow. Trans-national businesses have penetrated every nations border; mass media has enabled culture to be shared and swapped across the globe at an unprecedented rate. Indigenous/ethnic cultures are virtually powerless against the dominance of the new global culture. It seems that Blur resist the dominance of this global culture, and instead advocate the reconstruction of national identity, through representations that have an ideological basis.
Topic: identity

The ideologies behind the representations depicted in Text A are constructed by way of semiotics. The text is a magazine cover, which features Blur’s lead singer Damon Albarn, wearing a school uniform against the backdrop of a diagonally turned, Union Jack. The uniform worn by Albarn is that of the “average” British high school, certainly not that of a public (private) or grammar school. This representation alludes to the discourse of class, but more significantly, the ideology of youth/age.
Topic: identity

Hartley: “ideology is seen as the practise of reproducing social relations of inequality within the sphere of signification and discourse. “(p104) The concept of “youth” is completely a post-modern construct. In late-capitalist societies such as our own, youth are portrayed to be the innovators and reformers, and have therefore come to be thought of as more useful and productive than their older counterparts. Youth, also, have come to be thought of as being the only group within society who can inspire change.
Topic: identity

This is evidenced in the text by the slogan “Blur: Brit up your ears,” which is saying, “We are the sound of a new British identity. ” This is ironic, as it would seem Blur are trying to resist post-modernism, which advocates terms such as “new” According to Jameson, “new” is no longer possible: ” a feature of post-modern societies is that stylistic innovation is no longer possible, all that is left is to imitate dead styles. ” (qtd in Irvine) The flag represents the ideology of nationhood, and the importance of tradition. However, the flag being presented on the diagonal suggests “same Britain, different view.
Topic: identity

” The different view being represented is that of a young, British band in the late, post-modern era rejecting the post-modernist ideology, of individualism. Thereby, Blur is endorsing the modernist ideologies of tradition and nationhood. This continues in Blur’s paradigm, as the texts depict representations of a Britain alluding to the late 1950s/early 1960s. This can be clearly seen in Text B, a C. D sleeve. The artwork on the sleeve depicts a British steam engine known as the Mallard, which was in service between 1930-1959. The Mallard’s record setting time of 125mph still stands today.
Topic: identity

Because of this, it is invested with ideological significance, as it is a symbolic representation of Britain “leading the way” in terms of technology. The steam engine was also invented by The British; and therefore was a symbol of national pride. The title of the album is “Modern Life Is Rubbish,” this develops the sense of nostalgia for Britain’s perceived “glory days,” when life was simple. The album’s title also suggests that the post-modern era, is “rubbish”, thus invariably saying that the modern era was a better time in which to live. Britain’s economy in the late modern/early post-modern period was driven by industry.
Topic: identity

The working classes serviced these industries; they therefore had more precedence in society at this time, then at present. Britpop, the genre of music to which Blur belong, is musically aligned with the styles of other British bands such as The Kinks, who were active at the time when British bands were at the forefront of pop music culture. This is significant as pop, along with all musical styles, is becoming increasingly americanised. The ideology of nation, and national pride are therefore being represented to create identity through Blurs textual and musical invocations of nostalgia for a Britain gone-by.
Topic: identity

They are enabled further by ideologically constructed representations pertaining to class such as the steam engine, which is a particularly strong symbol of the working class. These representations are actually at odds with the ideologies the hegemony of today. A very exclusive identity of Britain is depicted in Text C. The text depicts a greyhound race, “going to the dogs,” as it is known in Britain is a particularly white, working class, male activity. Blur’s paradigm excludes non-whites, women and those who do not belong to the working class, thus suggesting that these people do not play a part in the shaping of British identity.
Topic: identity

This is obviously inaccurate, therefore the representations that are constructed by Blur’s paradigm have ideological basis in a resistant reading of the culture. A dominant, ideological reading of the culture, through the paradigm of reality television, depicts various groups of people within society and constructs its version of national identity through them. Thus, although it is still a culturally, constructed representation of national identity, it is more inclusive and therefore, to some extent, more accurate.

Topic: identity

The subject of identity has long been a contentious site in theoretical perspective for many years. Freud’s groundbreaking theories with regard to formation of self hood and other anthropological theories has only helped to twist this confusion into a concept which cannot be contained in a single theory alone. From the view of sociological concepts it is a system among groups that are motivated differently to act. As a result identity becomes a basic analytical concept which is in straightforward connection with a number of coexisting groups that interact with each other deciding their criteria for recognition.
Topic: identity

Historically the philosophical concept of identity began from the Latin term idem which means sameness or congruence. The term originated in relation with mathematics from a numerically complete form or a quantitatively rigorous data point that is used in the process of classification. The first definition of identity is rooted in the ideas of Parmenides he suggested a logical operationalization of identity in relation with cognition. Language is identical with thought and thought tio cognition and the object to itself, which is a main feature of identity.
Topic: identity

Simultaneously reality as a form of being and the process of cognition are distinct from each other. He showed that being and thought are not in a relation of congruence but of difference. This shows that in Parmenide’s thought the external world is in dependant from our observation and our knowledge but can also be objectified as a part of cognition that presents a truth. Another argument came in the form of Platonic metaphysical realism. He argued that reality contains two parts: the material world, which is visible and contains physical objects and the transcendentant world, of forms which exist above reality and contain ideas. In his view forms are only ontological cause of the material world but are organized in a specific manner which create a hierarchy of relations in the material world. Therefore in the relation to identity questions about congruence, equivalence, unity and diversity emerge from the ancient philosophical traditions.
Topic: identity

The personal identity argument which emerged during Age of Enlightment. It was a period of change in the western scientific thought. In 1960 John Locke wrote ’’ An Essay Concerning Human Understanding ’’ (1689) started a sophisticated academic discussion on the meaning of personal identity, and criteria for congruence. He presented a theory that showed that even if the idea existed in a different dimension of knowledge it is formed in the mind by a material circumstance. In addition he pu forward the theory of how consciousness went hand in hand with one’s cognition which constitutes one self. As long as the consciousness can move forward and backward to past actions the idea of self in the person asserts that it was always there and solid. He asserted that the personal identity over time is a continuo’s consciousness sustained by memory. This theory has a slight problem because identity here is constructed by history and history itself has got a transitive nature. In short words for Locke memory is the vehicle that carries identity. But is the individual capable enough to remember enough of his past to keep his self same.
Topic: identity

Modern philosophical discussion of this problem can be represented by the contributions of Sydney Shoemaker, Derek Parfit, and David Lewis. The recent argument about the self is that human beings create a sense of self by creating a narrative that ties various aspects of their life together. A n important result that came up with the theory of Locke is that identity does not explain the characteristics of personality of a personality because it is an external social nature of a person that depends on social relations. It must also be noted that the industrial revolution and the monumentous changes that changed the human social structure also changed the human perception of identity. This led to the invention of some new theories of which one is methodological individualism.
Topic: identity

Societies develop social standards, stereotypes, or labels to categorize people in, whether that is due to race, gender, social status, etc. These classifications can create injustices like racism and sexism, especially for immigrants. Discussing problems from a removed perspective can be challenging, but it is crucial in addressing these social problems. The novel, Americanah, written by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, creates a platform of dialogue in which she is able to analyze the roots of many of these problems, not only from a Nigerian perspective or an American perspective, but also from a different expressed awareness that transcends many societal stereotypes.
Topic: identity

Adichie is addressing the challenge of belonging and identity through the lens of Ifemelu’s African perspective. The American girl triumphs the Nigerian girl in a workplace setting. Ifemelu struggles to figure out how she should look to appeal to the customers at her workplace. Beauty is oppressive, as she goes outside of her comfort zone to please other people. Readers get a sense that she becomes aware of the difference in cultural beauty norms within America and Nigeria.
Topic: identity

Ifemelu also struggles with gender inequality, which is a continuous struggle throughout the novel. Gender is racialized, since Ifemelu knows that she would never act this way in Nigeria, but in America, she has no better instinct. Adichie shows how depending on which country you are in, the cultural norms vary and thus, you must adapt in order to appear as though you belong. Common ideals of being a young woman are different between Nigerians and Americans. Adichie would say that that white privilege plays a role, since the situation would likely change if she were white. Specifically, Ifemelu would not feel as uncomfortable trying to imitate a certain image. This justifies the statement that gender is racialized.
Topic: identity

In the contemporary era, women in the business world have to work harder than men to maintain a certain image. The present-day job market is notorious for placing an emphasis on beauty. There is a certain image Ifemelu is trying to match. It is noteworthy that although Ifemelu is portrayed as someone who has a lot of self-respect throughout the book, she still gets trapped under common ideas of what it means to be attractive. She is wise enough to escape from pretending to be someone she is not. Interestingly, although she is not an American, the American vision of what the ideal receptionist looks like is already instilled in her mind.
Topic: identity

Labour is racialized because Ifemelu is conscious of the fact that she is cannot maintain a fake American identity. One can argue that the reason she decides to act like an American is because she is desperate for income, which makes her lose self-respect. From a broader perspective, women all over the world may choose to give up their self-respect in order to achieve certain goals. The reason for this, one may argue, is that gender is seen as secondary for women in certain situations. Adichie would argue that females tend to have an unfixed identity or appearance when entering the job market. Her evidence would be the fact that Ifemelu openly admitted that she is fooling herself trying to be a professional young lady, when she knows she would rather wear a t-shirt all day.
Topic: identity

Adichie would agree that the expectations of certain jobs make women feel pressured to look a certain way. It highlights the idea that the American beliefs about beauty are superior to Nigerian ideals. She would also say that Ifemelu does not have a lot of social capital, since she felt really uncomfortable acting as if she were a high-class lady. If Ifemelu did not feel like an outsider-within, she would not feel uncomfortable acting like a professional, and she would just follow through with her act.
Topic: identity

One of the problems that was addressed early and continued to be addressed throughout the novel, was Ifemelu’s finding of her self-identity. Ifemelu was concerned with the generalization of self-identity by the host society. This could be seen in both American and Nigerian society. For example, early on in the novel when Ifemelu went to get her hair done, Aisha pestered her about her hair asking, ‘Why you don’t have relaxer’ prompting Ifemelu to respond, ‘I like my hair the way God made it’ (Adichie, 15.) In America, it was, and still is common for black women to use relaxer in their hair. This makes the hair straighter, like that of a white girl. Ifemelu did not want to be a white girl however, she wanted to be herself. She recognized that there was a societal expectation of her, but she did not let that overcome her. Ifemelu’s hair not only connected her to Africa, but it was an extension of herself. She can let everyone know who she is by keeping her natural hair. Ifemelu realized she did not have to relax her hair to be any more American than anyone else.

He gave her everything she wanted, including a big house, money, jewelry, and whatever else she asked for. In Nigeria, it is expected that the rich remain in power. The General lived up to this expectation by making Uju ask him for everything she needed. This put her in a submissive position and gave the General control over her. When Ifemelu confronted her Aunt Uju about her situation, Uju insisted that she was going to ‘change’ her lover. Even though Uju made some progress, overall this relationship only contributed to Nigeria’s perceptions about relationships. Powerful and rich men get what they want, when they want it. They are often seen as superiors due to their wealth. This could be seen when The General was supposed to spend the holiday with Uju (instead of his wife) but he cancelled last minute. Instead of being mad at The General, she turns her frustrations toward Ifemelu who spoke up against him; Aunty Uju charged at her ‘the slap landed on the side of her face’ (Adichie 98.) Uju acted powerless in this situation, and Ifemelu recognized it. Aunty Uju simply acted as a servant to The General. Ifemelu attempted to have a real conversation with her Aunt, but she was in denial. Nigerian society had persuaded Uju that there was little she could do – and she believed it.
Topic: identity

This shows how perceptions can dictate the way people act, according to their respective societies. There are certain expectations put in place by that society which extends its bias into its people. Real conversations can be made much more difficult if these expectations are not addressed, and in many cases overlooked. Ifemelu was able to transcend many of these expectations using the power of her blog as a third diasporic space where problems could be analyzed and talked about openly. People could discuss their predisposed biases and surpass them to address the core of the issues at hand.

This can be seen by the stalls, Japanese soldier, flag and banner in the background. There are also people present either as stall vendors or customers. During 1942, World War 2 just broke out and I would imagine this would be the scene we would have witnessed if we were present there (Andrew Knighton, 17 November 2017). The overall mood from this painting is a little confusing because the people look happy and cheerful but I believe that it may be rather tense. I believe that it may be tense because, why would a soldier be patrolling at a marketplace when it is a place where people would get their daily needs.

Fernando has used different hues of neutral colours for the background and used cool colours as a contrast to make the people at the front stand out. He has also used light to brighten up the front of the painting and darken the back of the painting. Brightening the front of the painting suggests to me that there could be sunlight, and darkening the back of the painting suggests to me that there is shade where they are at. He gave texture to the clothes people were wearing by showing creases you would normally see in real life. He also paid special attention to the straw hats and head scarves people are wearing, possibly indicating the place is hot. He painted the background with lesser detail as compared to the center of the painting, allowing the attention to be mostly focused at the center. Fernando used oil paint which contain a lot of pigments which make the painting last longer and more vibrant.

It makes me feel like the people have no freedom and are being watched over and controlled, even though the people depicted are happy. I think the artist created this art piece to maybe let people of the future feel or imagine what the society was like during the Japanese Occupation. Additionally, this painting also relates to me when I was younger. My grandmother would always bring me to a wet market to get fresh foods every so often and the smells were not always pleasant. I am sure that there are people with this same childhood, and this painting would allow them to relate and think back, just like how it allowed me to.

This art piece is definitely an interesting one, as it manages to capture the chaos that is often seen in a marketplace while also depicting it in the Japanese Occupation. However, I think it could have been done better. Not that I could have, but I believe that since this was during the Japanese Occupation, I think the artist could have paid more attention to the people’s expression. I believe if I was at that marketplace during the occupation, I would be feeling worried or scared as I wouldn’t know what would happen or what could happen the next minute.

Ethical issues in social media begin when a virtual identity is shaped and the user is able to create a picture of him-or herself as he or she would like to be, not what he or she really is. It becomes extreme when people in the real world cannot show themselves as they really are, while if they express their true opinions, they face penalties that are more likely to be found in dictatorial regimes. This is a complicated way of saying that users of virtual worlds who associate more closely with their avatars tend to have a more rewarding experience. Researchers at Stanford University have found that the more closely an avatar resembles the actual person, the more likely it is to psychologically inhabit the virtual body and assume its characteristics. Virtual worlds have found a strong and enthusiastic audience among people who live with autism spectrum disorders. They may also have limited attention spans and difficulty controlling their emotions. Studies further indicate that a kinetic response improves anthropomorphic realism, which might reveal insights into how people with limited mobility connect with their virtual selves. Beyond their individual use, social and collaborative learning has been highlighted as a particular area where virtual world environments can be exploited from the perspective of organizations and educational institutions alike.

April Dawn Paris is a freelance writer that works with literature and education materials. She goes into detail clarifying the poem of “Legal Alien” and demonstrate how it reflects what most people feel. She also explain how people are subjugated to being treated as outcasts to both sides. Mermann-Jozwiak and Sullivan on the other hand do not really talk about this subject in their interview. For them, not mentioning it probably mean that it is not as bad as what April Dawn Paris believes it to be.

They give more matter about the Spanish words in the poetry. In the story, Mora incorporated a verse, “”How’s life?” to “Me’stan volviendo loca””, you are driving me crazy.

Still in the same topic, Dawn Paris does talk most about Culture Conflict while as Merman-Jozwiak and Sullivan demonstrate that the words of the poetry is the problem. April Dawn Paris talks about being bilingual and how the people who are part of the dual culture feel like they are outcasts and lonely as well as that they are hovering at the edges of both worlds. On the other side, Mermann-Jozwiak and Sullivan talk about a very different aspect of culture conflict.

One of the theme in this poem that really touch me was loneliness. Indeed, when the speaker says, “An American to Mexicans / a Mexican to Americans” (lines 14-15) she wants to shows how much she feels lonely. It is not because she does not have friends or acquaintances. It is because she feels like no one can understand. We all had felt those feelings before and can empathize with the speaker. Therefore, we have to take our masks off and let people in.

Mora is trying to find herself. She does not know where she belongs. She feels a discrimination from both cultures because she is an American citizen with a Mexican background. According to the article, Mexican and American war is what caused the present discrimination in Mora’s life. Being fluent in both cultures, get her to be judged in her believes. People treat her like a stranger in both cultures. The article also mentioned the war between Mexico and America, and explained how because of it many conflict happened between Americans and Mexicans born in U.S soil. She is discriminated in her home country for not following all the same traditions and in the other hand; Mora was discriminated in the U.S for not being the normal “Caucasian”.

I understand the feeling Mora could have because of experiences i’ve had to go through. Just like Mora, we’ve had to stay silent and take in any type of discrimination against us. We aren’t taught to stand up for ourselves because ever since we were little our parents tried explaining to us that we were not in a land where we are accepted nor wanted. They gave the example of not defending ourselves because while we were growing up we saw them get discriminated and they just stayed silent. As said in the article “Not being seen the same and getting placed in a different spot for not meeting their expectations.” It’s a perfect example of the types of discriminations we are put through.

Anil’s Ghost is a novel by Michael Ondaatje about Anil who is chasing down her own identity. When talked about an identity of a person, it usually started off with his or her name, or hometown. However, two of these attributes, are already debated for the character Anil Tissera. Different experiences in one’s life allows them to piece together their values and beliefs forming the identity they possess and who they are as individuals. An individua’s identity is an important aspect of them to feel distinctly different from others but to have a connection as well if they have similarities.

In Anil’s Ghost by Michael Ondaatje, the way Anil’s identity was changed and formed was due to her changing her name, her identity as a swimmer is still influencing identity till today, and they way lover affected her identity. This paper explores how Anil’s identity was influenced by her changed her real name to her brother’s second unused name, how her identity as a swimmer was bothering her due to her past life in Sri Lanka, and the way love had influenced her identity.

Earlier in Anil’s life, Anil makes a serious change in order to control over her identity. When Anil was thirteen-years-old she didn’t like the name that she had been given at her birth. “Her name had not always been Anil” (Ondaatje 67). Anil had been given two names she did not like both of them, so she came up with the idea of buying her brother’s second name, which he did not use at all. After lots of debates on this issue Anil eventually succeeded and got his brother’s second unused name, but the history behind having the name “Anil” was very unexpected. “She gave her brother one hundred saved rupees, a pen set he had been eyeing for some time, a tin of fifty Gold Leaf cigarettes she had found, and a sexual favour he had demanded in the last hours of the impasse” (Ondaatje, 68).

Not only does Anil have to give her brother money and good materials in order to get his unused name, but also she has to perform “a sexual favour”, and whatever that exactly means, it is definitely something that Anil was hesitant to do that put her into the most embarrassing position. This shows that she was ready to do anything just to have control over her identity. She was so passionate that her tries made her “taut and livid inside the family”. (Ondaatje,136) Anil by no means gave her family rest, which is strange behaviour for Sri Lankans who are always “surrounded via household order”. (Ondaatje,138) The fact that she goes through all the nonsense is the proof of her belief in the idea that identity is something that can be controlled by the individual.

This quote displaces that Anil has events from her past that makes her want to overcome the situation. In this case, she has ended her career as a swimmer from when she lived in Sri Lanka. This is an issue for Anil because while others in Sri Lanka associate her as a great swimmer and keep reminding her of that, she is trying to forget her past life and only focus on her new life in America. But, her family was making everyone believe that she was a great swimmer. A swimmer who happens to have a degree in the field of forensic anthropology “Anil had been an exceptional swimmer as a teenager, and the family never got over it; the talent was locked to her for life” (Ondaatje,10). Anil has been living out of Sri Lanka for the past fifteen years. She has tried to maintain her distance from the identity of being “the swimmer” and has

But Sri Lanka does not see her in this particular way. In fact, the first time that she meets, Sarath Diyasena, he addresses her by saying “So – you are the swimmer!” (16). This quote displaces that no matter what her educational background is she is still identified by her early accomplishments as a swimmer. This issue creates a conflict within herself of whether she should be what they identified her as or be what she wants to be, which is an American. Anil only came back to Sri Lanka because her occupant required her to do so. Many individuals for their jobs try their hardest not to get emotionally attached because it will then start to make them ineffective when they are on work. In this case, when Anil returns she initially tries to push away her feelings for this country and forget her past life or else she would not be able to perform to the greatest. This also shows that she at least has some control over her identity and also some control over the way that people view her. This also displayed that your identity in past will never leave your back, you can’t get rid of it but yes you can have multiple identity since people are stuffed with different talents.
