The truth is, your identity already has been stolen.
You should know, whether you live in the U.S. or in the U.K., that your identity has already been stolen.
Around 2001, I started analyzing lesbians. I started to realize that even really butch-acting or -dressing women still had a strong female identity that I never had.
A lot of people think that intersectionality is only about identity. But it's also about how race and gender are structured in particular workforces.
I don't like the idea that in music, clothes, taste or anything, we are limited to a certain style, because we need to maintain an identity, maybe between some subculture group. Hopefully, all those walls break down, and music is just music.

The thing is most people are afraid to step out, to take a chance beyond their established identity.
Every industry has got its distinct identity. The Malayalam film industry is right up there with some of the greatest content, artistes and technicians.
I was trained as an economic theorist; my job at MIT was as an economic theorist. At some level that's still part of my identity.
There's no such thing as identity: it's something we have to believe in to make life more tolerable.
I'm not some sort of tormented soul looking for an identity in the roles I take. I became an actress because I just love dressing up and playing.
I happen to be black and a woman and unapologetically proud to be both, but that is not the totality of my identity.
Through my travels, I find inspiration in street style and how young women create their individual looks and identity.
A racial or religious or tribal identity is a kind of fact.
