Abstract

The living space in society breeds culture which is closely related to all identities in the social environment. This shows that culture can reflect the identity that belongs to a community group. The identity that is built socially is an image of the collective experience of cultural groups of people. The Minang community group has many identities which are also reflected in the dissemination of news through Singgalang Daily newspaper. The construction of the cultural identity of the Minang people in Singgalang Daily shapes the public perception that the Singgalang Daily is part of the Minang community. This paper discusses about the way Minang cultural identity appeared in the Singgalang Daily by dissecting the reflection of Minang cultural identity in Singgalang Daily based on the culture of the Minang community applying qualitative research with the approach of the theory of cultural identity proposed by Stuart Hall and the hermeneutic method proposed by Wilhelm Dilthey. The result reveals that: (1) visually, in the old publications the Singgalang Daily already tried to show Minang identity construction, and; (2) Singgalang Daily is a newspaper born from the collective experience of the Minangkabau culture.
