Assignment task:
Following Foucault, both Judith Butler and Stuart Hall ("Race, the floating signifier" video), among others, argue that the meanings of concepts of classification integral to all identities (such as gender, race, and sexuality) are socio-historical rather than natural, socially constructed rather than biologically determined, cultural and representational rather than genetically based, always in process rather than being already accomplished facts or essential (assumed to be innate and defining of a person's essence as a person) characteristics of people)
