| Popis: | 105 Ethnic identity is the concern of most modern indigenous youth when they are growing up. In a multicultural society like Taiwan, different circumstances affect everyone’s growing and development. It seems that no one can choose the environment they live in, but through learning, participation, adaptation and practice, they can develop regconition of their own ethnic identity. In this study, from my person perspective and through the process of action and narrative, I explore my own way of searching for my ethnic identity, through living with different tribes, having education and work experiences, and other activities such as baptism to sketch out different roles of mine under the realization of the indigenous identity. This paper aims to show how to learn culture through retrospective history of action, from the perspective of the Ami youth, to clarify their own framework of culture, and to reflect the current situation of the narrative and analysis of action. The main questions in this paper are the following three: First, how I can enter various cultural fields in different ethnic groups. Second, in the course of action, the kinds of difficulties and problems I encountered and how I solved them. Third, how I change in terms of thinking after the action. After experiencing the practice and action of the long-term cultural field, I have found that ethnic identity can penetrate into different cultural fields through various modes of actions and strengthen the construction of ethnic identity. Also, the process of regconizing ethnic identity changes with different actions. I having constructed my own ethnic identity, I keep adapting, learning and changing to better understand my own ethnic culture. At the same, by engaging in the indigenous ethnic affairs, I have developed a stronger sense of identity and purpose and recognized my indigenous identity. More importantly I expect to recover indigenous culture as an Amis with confidence. |
