Cultural situatedness need not limit identity or delegitimize other cultures

Evidence

Stuart Hall has argued that a positive conception of ethnicity must begin with “a recognition that all speak from a particular place, out of a particular history, out of a particular experience, a particular culture, without being contained by that position” (1992:258; my emphasis). In other words, the recognition of our cultural and historical situatedness should not set the limits of ethnicity and culture, nor act to undermine the legitimacy of other equally valid forms of identity. — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 951
