The values of identity and freedom are not unique to particular times and places. As Hughes expresses in "Dream Variations," all humans want to be able to develop their identities in freedom. What is required of society to enable each individual to be true to his/her identity and to be free to live by that identity? (Give specific examples of what society-all of us-must do to make this happen.)

Explanation: According to some ideal model, every person would be most useful to society if they could develop their identity without hindrance, and could make a living from it. Such a person would live completely free and have a sense of security, which means freedom. Of course, with such freedom and a fully expressed identity, one must distinguish between the destructive actions that can occur and which are harmful to society.

In order for a society to be free to all and to develop freely the identities of all, then it should work on tolerance above all, as well as on other components, to develop the freedom of all people in society. It is clear that people are different and have different needs, aspirations, therefore different identities, and one society must develop a sense of difference and acceptance of these differences. Other components are learning, reading, cognition of a different system of value, awareness, because when something is known then there is no fear of it, and it is easier to accept even though it is different from what we know. This means that society should enable people with all these components to be accessible to people and even to encourage people to these values, and thus creating a climate of tolerance and the need to constantly meet the new and the unknown. And the key is to emphasise that new and unknown is not scary and threatening, but an opportunity to learn something new that will enrich us and broaden our perspectives, which again contributes to getting to know ourselves better and is a great chance to work on our own identity.

All this is also what we should all do, and of course society as a whole, and I think that is possible if we want to. If nothing else, let's not interfere with all this when one wants to move forward and work on one's identity.
