Abstract

The chapter discusses a few more identities that have been added since 2009. But adding more identities without explanation of how these identities affect existing identities does not contribute to providers’ ability to understand clients’ worldviews. A paradigm shift in thinking from simple binary to complex holistic is proposed in order to view the whole person whose identity is composed of multiple identities and their intersections. A paradigm shift in learning from conceptual to transformative which is a deep learning from integrating intellectual understanding with emotional understanding is also proposed. It is emphasized that multicultural issues are emotionally complex for both oppressed and the privileged for different reasons and experiences, and they must be processed through transformative learning.
