Abstract
ABSTRACT This research explores the enactment of cultural identity in discussions of controversial intercultural issues between college students and their friends. The discourse reveals forms in which respondents justified their opinions primarily through 3 speaking strategies: the reproduction of dominant ideologies, contrasting self and other, and making in/outgroup distinctions. The enactments of identity functioned to create a social hierarchy in which dominant group values governed perceptions of others. This study contributes to the critical study of Whiteness by exploring the intersection of contexts, including institutions, ideologies, and identifications such as race, ethnicity, and class in and through cultural identity enactment.
