I've been assigned a paper about the American dream in my sociology class. The assignment is supposed to discuss what the American dream is, what my personal American dream is, and which sociological theory can be applied with the concept of the American dream. Thankfully this is a topic that interests me and, at the same time, provides a forum in which I can express my personal opinion regarding the reality of a regular American citizen's ability to achieve this goal. I'm very pleased that I have an assignment that I can enjoy during the additional exploration of the topic that we have been assigned for our third document.
Sweet Deal! I am still at a stand still for my topic for Doc 3. Sounds like an interesting topic you have, I would like to read your paper when you get done. Hope your feeling better, see you in class.
ReplyDeleteThe American dream is like an endangered species. except more people care about whales and exotic birds and plant life then dreams so no one exposes whats happening to the idea of personal dreams. You cant capitalize on dreams so whats the purpose of talking about them right?
ReplyDeleteThat's so true Mr. Willens. This is a topic that should be discussed and explored some more. Your comment reminds me of some of the public comments that I've seen about the immigrant children crossing the border. So many of the same people that feel we should just "send them back" are the same people that show such empathy towards abused and neglected animals....It just doesn't seem right to care more about animals than we do about people, especially children!
ReplyDeleteI really love your title and mind set off your paper. I can tell you had fun writing this paper because just the title itself makes it very interesting. I am looking foward to reading your paper please shareit with me.
