Who’s American? Before reading the article Whose American?, My theory of who was American was the people that were born here and believed in the American values of equality for all. I had no issues with immigrants, as long as they chose to embrace the American beliefs and cultural, you can’t move to America for opportunity and not be willing to comprise so of you cultural and beliefs.

The U.S. Constitution gives Americans the right to express themselves. This includes the freedom to practice your own religion, the freedom speech, the freedom to wear which ever clothes you prefer to wear, and even the freedom to dye one’s hair blue and pierce one's own tongue. Even though most people in America do not have blue hair and a tongue stud, they are generally accepting of it because of the culture that is here in America. Consumerism is a

Dr. Martin Luther King analysis Martin Luther King is trying to tell his audience that everyone should be treated equal. The fact that somebody can say such powerful words off the top of their head is amazing. In this portion of the speech, he is telling people what he sees possible to happen in the future.

Kennedy says, “Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty”(939). Kennedy promises to protect Americans’ rights and help any friend at any price to ensure the survival of liberty. We all know that Americans are fortunate to have unalienable human rights that not all people around the world have, and that what makes America distinctive. Moreover, Kennedy speaks to his fellow citizens of the world and states, “Ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man”(941). He encourages people around the world not to wait for what can America help them on, but what they can do if they cooperate with others as members of this world to protect an essential element, which is freedom, to improve the criteria of life to all people who were deprived from it.

The American dream is what this country represents so it is of vital importance to understand its significance to avoid misinterpretations. First, the American dream is something that every inhabitant citizen and none citizen of the United States conceives and bears in its heart with a profound desire of one day reaching it. It was the founding fathers of our nation who gave a breath of life to that dream in the Declaration of Independence which states: "all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness”. It is this statement, specially “the pursuit of happiness” which settles the bases for the American dream. In the film The Pursuit of Happyness [sic], Will Smith plays the role of Christopher Gardner a low class citizen.
