After reading the passage An Affluent Society‚ 1953-1960 (“What Freedom Means to Us”) in chapter 24‚ the most general analytic observation that I made was simply that the tone portrayed in the reading was cold and dry. I observed that it carried no real emotion‚ merely explaining what real life is in America. The problem is that this passage is Richard M. Nixon’s voice and perspective. Mind you that our 37th president served during 1969-1974 a time when the inequality of race‚ color‚ creed was still

Wings of freedom I felt empty and incomplete. The door had been closed‚ but I could still feel the breeze that slowly crept up my back‚ as I sat there in the dark‚ hopeless. The sorrow had made its way to my eyes‚ and tears dropped one by one‚ on the hard cement‚ echoing through by ears. The cement floor was covered with tiny blood spots‚ and only a few feathers were left unnoticed by them. I grabbed the feathers‚ clenched my fist around them‚ as I looked up at the crack on the unending wall.

The Bill of Rights is a very important document that contains many valuable freedoms that are the foundation of American society.

Throughout history many people have left their homelands due to persecution they have faced for believing in what

In the textbook Give Me Liberty! by Eric Foner‚ there are excerpts throughout each chapter written in different times in history describing their voice of freedom. I have chosen three from the early 1600’s to the late 1800’s to see whether
