My mom talked about how her father first went to America first, and she credits him for getting her and the rest of her family to America, and I think its funny but she had a similar situation to Reyna. She lived alone with her older brother and older sister while her parents were making money, but eventually they came over. She believes the America Dream is finding new possibilities to be successful in America. Her American Dream was inspired by her fathers, she says she is living the American Dream, and she believes that the American Dream is realistic and that America will always be the land of opportunity. She also says that the one thing her parents drilled into her about coming to America was education and that is her piece of advice to me.]]> 2022-05-19 16:45:09 UTC https://padlet.com/5866352/irjsr3dkf7zkzylp/wish/2191666344 Who Will Survive in America 5866352 https://padlet.com/5866352/irjsr3dkf7zkzylp/wish/2191677764 The song "Who Will Survive in America" is about the changing culture and of the "American Dream". The song uses vivid and graphic imagery to show the way our culture has drastically changed and how it effects the American Dream. "Us living as we do upside down" Here he talks about how he thinks that America has changed so drastically where the new American Dream is to be rich and famous, and how we idolize celebrities, fame, drugs, money, and sex.
"Who will survive in America?" Here he questions who could survive in such a place? Where he believes the morals and dreams of the new generation have changed so drastically.
