Generally considered that the American Dream consists of a healthy family‚ a well-paying job and a sturdy home. A lot of people dream about it and use all their opportunities to achieve it. However‚ the socioeconomic situation of the United States is an obstacle to this ideal. The characters who inhabit Raymond Carver’s Cathedral are blue-collar Americans confused and illusioned by the hollow image of an American dream they see on the TV screen every night.

The City of Dream Bright lights‚ massive crowds of people‚ a whole new perspective of life was all I could think about as I tossed and turned‚ unable to sleep. Anxiety and nervousness flooded my body‚ like water rushing into city streets after a hurricane. Maybe it was the fear of the unknown‚ but it was a good feeling. A feeling of anticipation; it was the night before my trip to New York and I was ready to experience the “City of Dreams” for myself. Ready to accomplish my goals

Kanye West’s Ignorance about Slavery is Damaging The musician’s ignorant comments about slavery is producing damaging effects on the black people’s history. Kanye West announced that slavery was a choice. Clearly‚ he didn’t read his history books nor listened to his lessons in school.

who come quickly to my mind whenever I hear or see images of American patriotism are John Steinbeck and Hunter S. Thompson. As different as these two men are‚ their writing is similar in that the American Dream constantly fails their characters. Both seek to define America and the American Dream‚ however‚ it remains seemingly elusive‚ and both writers fail to find it.

Since then‚ I feel that a Scholarship based program should be implemented onto the campus for the Asians and Latino population‚ just as there is one targeted for the African-American population.
