https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu As you watch the video, comment on three things: 1. Choose a strategy that the speaker uses to make his point-- this can be a humorous moment, a shift in tone, a visual, etc. 2. Connect the message of the video to a character in Behold the Dreamers-- how (even at this early stage) might we see the conflicts emerging? 3. Comment on something else that struck you-- this can be a question or a comment. en-us 2020-01-30 13:04:15 UTC 2025-11-03 13:26:15 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151654 1. He tries to use his comedic lines in order to humor the audience while proving his point of the american dream. Along with using visuals, showing pictures, or sentences.  
2. The message of trying to achieve the american dream is what Jende is trying to get for his family. The conflicts are the attempts on helping your family while balancing work and friends all at once. 
3. I found it interesting how he was trying to fit humor into his speech in order to get the audience to be comfortable with his points while he's talking. ]]> 2020-01-30 14:10:54 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151654 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151685 1) The speaker uses humour to draw in the audience. By making people laugh, he is able to make sure that people are paying attention to what he's saying.
2) His message was that you can't have everything, but you can have some of it if you be yourself. Cindy worked really hard to get to where she is, but she ends up not feeling fulfilled with her life or marriage. Cindy just wanted to have wealth and power, and didn't have a dream to follow. 
3) The speaker says that you should focus on the thing that makes you different, even if it does not line up with your dreams. I don't agree, I think you should focus on whatever it is that you want to do with your life. ]]> 2020-01-30 14:10:57 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151685 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151790 1. he tried using humor to engage viewers.
2. The idea of the american dream consuming people and hurting relationships reminds me of Clark's work getting in the way of his family.
3.
He spoke for too long in order to get his point across.]]> 2020-01-30 14:11:08 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151790 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151844 1. He builds up his point with humor and personal experience from his childhood. 
2. He talks about ideals and stuff that normal people have that is in the American dream but Jende and Neni do not get to experience some of these things because they don't have the money for it
3. He kept talking about the 10 beats thing and that sort of stuck with me ]]> 2020-01-30 14:11:13 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151844 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151998 - The speaker uses quotes that you are told when you are younger and shows how they are true but now in the way you think of them.
- The dream is what you create and it doesn't happen right away only over time and time is what Jende and Neni don't have. 
- He took quotes and turned them into something deeper and what you have to do put them into effect to create your american dream. ]]> 2020-01-30 14:11:26 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438151998 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438152046 1.  He starts talking about his childhood and uses humor to entertain the audience. He also shows pictures.
2. He talked about how you should always do something good even though you do not want to sometimes. In Behold the Dreamers, Jende works a lot to have an American dream for his family, even though he does not like working everyday for that it is still a good thing to do.
3. He compares himself to famous and wealthy people that he went to school with. ]]> 2020-01-30 14:11:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438152046 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438152086 This dude was incredibly funny, keeping my attention on him the entire time (an impressive feat as I have the attention span of 20 seconds) What he said made sense and was captivating.]]> 2020-01-30 14:11:34 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438152086 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438152115 1.

2. He says his family helps him forget how hard it is to do the thing he is called to do.
3. He says the american dream is what you create over time, which is what Neni and Jende are doing right now. ]]> 2020-01-30 14:11:47 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438152238 emma_coleman6 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438153648 1. He is very honest with the audience.
2. People tell young people that they can be anything they set their minds too but in Behold the Dreamers Jende can not be anything such as a American because there is a complicated system he has to go through. 
3. I do not really agree with what he was saying with give up what you like to get to where you can get to your dream. ]]> 2020-01-30 14:13:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438153648 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438157344 1eujjvff4tre]]> 2020-01-30 14:18:26 UTC https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438157344 https://padlet.com/cmargolis/mhh7np9wghqu/wish/438158034 He uses humor to grab everyone's attention about his life

2.. He talks about the quote "Do what you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life" saying that's not true  and one should do what they love and will have to work everyday of their life.
