The American Illusion
The American dream means justice, liberty, and happiness. What does it mean to have an American dream? For some people it means thriving for success in many ways and for others it means to make a difference. However, the American Dream varies, but all in one we stand as a nation.
There are problems with our social justice and equality. For instance, some people in America are locked up in jails, and are not to blame. How are they going to accomplish their American Dream? This world seems to be unequal in justice and something needs to be done about it. For instance, if you are with one of your friends and they have drugs in the car with them, you can also get arrested. This seems like an unfair situation because sometimes friends can keep hidden secrets. However, everybody has a different perspective on the American Dream.
For instance, the author in the writing “American Dream” depicts America as a landscape and as a collection of people and positions because there is a lot of history and opportunities in America. The Statue of Liberty represents the American dream because it was a gift from the French as a form of friendship. It stands in Staten Island, New York. In addition, America can be described as a landscape because there is a change in seasons. During the summer the flowers and trees are alive and blossomed. Then, in the winter the trees are leafless and full of white fluffy snow. These seasons can symbolize the people’s lives because in the summer people enjoy their lives more than in the winter. The weather is nice, which allows people to spend time at parks and travel to visit other places. Throughout the winter, people are often in the house
spending time watching television or even reading a book.
America is recognized as one of the most productive places where people can begin a better life. For instance, a girl’s parents brought her as a child to Connecticut so that she could have a better life. More jobs and opportunities are avaible and also better colleges where they can find financial aid.Her mother completed her masters as a teacher and her family is continuing their education in college. This is an example of a better life because they came from Puerto Rico where they offered fewer opportunities in education and less variety of jobs.
The speech” I have a Dream” addressed by Martin Luther King Jr., is an example of why America is a great place to find liberty and accomplish your dreams. For instance, Martin did the best he could to unite the blacks and whites together and he made the world better. He made petitions, speeches and never gave up in his dreams and goals. He made a difference because he believed that blacks and whites should deserve the same freedom and equality in our nation. He stood up for himself and helped defend other blacks. This is why he is known as one of the greatest man to make our nation stronger. In the other hand, there is still racism happening, but not as much as before. At this present time, blacks and whites are able to be seen together and could obtain the same jobs. Martin was brave and did not give up on his dreams. With this saying, Martin did make a difference and his speech touched people all over the world. He let the freedom ring from the mountains to the valleys. He was finally free at last and did not have to fear of the whites.
The author in “America the Beautiful” depicts America as a wonderful place full of excitement. The poem expresses how she feels about America. She describes the moment when the pilgrims came to our land. She also explains how beautiful America is and how god blesses the land. It also says that God blessed America by providing great things to happen. Things like good jobs, and a better living. People can relate to her emotions because America means more than just land to them. It means a place where people can enjoy their lives and live to the fullest. In addition, it is a place where people can accomplish their dreams and be treated equally. No one will judge people strictly because of their nationality or color. Furthermore, America is part of a good government and president. Our president has a lot of plans ahead and works to make our world better and safer. For example, he wants to stop all terrorism and help out our economy. Over all, America is a great beautiful place to reside in.
Friends and families can help others to reach for the stars. Ever wonder how beautiful America really is? Well go and achieve something that you never had the chance to. Go to college and enjoy life to the fullest. Overcoming obstacles boosts your self esteem and makes you thankful for being where you really are. For instance, a girl named Sara accomplished a lot in life.
It all started when she arrived in the United States while she was trying to dominate the English language. She felt so alone and thought that she would neve
