Losing Rights Activity

I thought that the activity was interesting.  At first I gave away the color of my hair, which I don't care about.  Next I gave away being Jewish/Christian, because I am not religious at all.  I then gave away being a 16 year old highschool student, only because it was less important than the other things I had.  Next I gave away my ethnicity.  I am mostly Lithuanian and Sweedish.  I care about it and would not like to loose it but it is not the end of the world, and it doesn't completely define me.  The rest of my cards were a sister, a daughter, a friend, and a girl.  I got rid of being a friend because I would still have my family.  I got rid of being a daughter because I still had my brother.  When it was down to being a girl and a sister I didn't know what to do.  This activity was a little easy because in real life I wouldn't loose my ethnicity, family, or sex.  I chose I would rather be a girl than a sister.  I love my family but I wouldn't want to be a boy.  I thought the activity was fun, but when I thought what would happen in real life, I can't imagine how hard it would be.  I would never want to lose my family or even my ethnicity.  It would be sad and very hard.  I think the activity gave me a good perspective on what had happened to people throughout history.
