The america I believe in is freedom. I think this america is beautiful. I think it is nice because we get freedom and it is good because it gave me a life and a family that cares about me. It also keeps everyone safe and free so you can not be held as a slave like in the past. There is not separate schools for different color skin people. This means anyone can do what they want to do and be what they want to do. You can be yourself without getting judged and if you do you suck it up and it will eventually backfire on them. I think that america is special and it is sweet because it gives us everything we need to survive. If I were president I would make sure everybody would have what they want. Everybody could get their own mansion and their

The America I believe in is where nobody can take away our God given rights. One where people have respect for our veterans and know and understand what they have been through. One where no dictator or a ruler from another country can come over and run our country.
The America I believe in has freedom, loyalty, liberty, and equality. We are patriotic and will fight for our country. We as Americans are proud of who we are and won’t give that up.
The America I Believe in, is one that stands proud in the fire. One that stands strong and brave in the rain.

These people, good people, do not want a dictatorship. I do not want dictatorship.

America is the universal symbol of freedom. But is it really free? Does the history of the United States stay true to the ideas of our forefathers? Or has the definition been altered to fit American policies? Has freedom defined America? Or has America defined freedom? I believe America was at first defined by freedom, then after time, America defined freedom, altering the definition to fit the niche it fits in, but still keeping key components so it still seems to be staying true to the ideas of America’s founding fathers.
The America I believe in is not the best place to be in at times but it is the best place to live in, to me personally. I believe that America is the greatest place on Earth because so many people live here that have different beliefs and backgrounds it is just like one big melting pot. When I was younger I wanted to travel the world and live everywhere but now I realize that I would only want to live in America even tho I still want to travel the word. So many people risk their lives to live here and become an American I am thankful every day that I was born in America and not a place where I would always want to leave and risk my life to go to America. I was told all my life that I was lucky to be born an American and I never understood
As the United States entered WWII, the abstract idea of “American freedom” came to mean different things to different demographics of people. FDR condensed “American freedom” into the “Four Freedoms”-Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Religion, Freedom from Want, and Freedom from Fear. Essentially, these freedoms served as an ideological basis and justification for America’s involvement in WWII and shift from its previous isolationist policy. According to Foner, “FDR described [America’s] protections against tyrannical government as defining characteristics of American life, central to other rights of ‘free men and free women’”(918). FDR espoused the the Four Freedoms in a “crusade” for democracy. As an emerging world power, FDR believed that it
My thoughts on america will be stated in this essay. These are my opinions and I hope they are not taken offensively in any way. This is going to be 100% honest and truthful. What you are about to hear may shock you. Now let’s get right into this essay.
Everyone has their own version of what the definition of freedom is here in the United States but the basic definition it is the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint. Under the circumstances of following the laws. As time has gone on it has helped freedom come along way with all the different eras and the ups and the downs that occurred that has shaped us to that “American Dream” of freedom we have today. There are many events that helped shape Americans freedom today and these are just some of the events that really helped push the rights we have today, woman starting to get jobs, slaves getting freed, Native Americans sharing land, segregation, equal rights to all and passing the law for gay marriage.
First, I learned significance of freedom in American history. One of the purposes of this trip is to see how America has acquired freedom. I was able to study ambitiously about American social background such as religion, politics, economy because I originally had an interest in American history. In learning American history, I visited facilities and spots related to the independence war, the colonial era, the black history. For example, It’s the freedom trail. Boston is a land where an independent war has occurred, and by visiting here, I can gain knowledge about the history of America until independence. Other than that, in the land of Plymouth, I learned the history of seeking freedom of religion from the UK and I learned that people of
In Langston Hughes poem “Let America be America Again” he talks about how America should return to the way that it was perceived to be in the dreams before America was truly America. Throughout the poem he uses various methods to evoke the patriotic images and dreams that he feels America should and will eventually be. Hughes states that America is supposed to be a place of equality for everyone including both white and colored people. During this period in time though there was not equality for everyone. Hughes talks about an America where both whites and colored people will have equality in all aspects socially, politically, and economically. What Hughes is saying is that both whites and colored
The Poem, ‘Let America Be America Again’ was written in 1938 by Langston Hughes. An American writer of the 20th century and well known for writing about injustice and inequality against low income working folks that existed in his days as a kid in Harlem south of Manhattan, New York. At a young age in the 1920’s were the years of Manhattan’s black renaissance (Hughes).In the poem “Let America Be America Again”, the speaker expressed his frustrations of African American who are victims of deception regarding what American is portrayed be. Our narrator emphasizes how dream became the motivation of the American people. Hughes also made reference to the inequality and lack of freedom that existed in the American community especially the disadvantaged multiracial, multi-skill workers. Hughes wrote about the shift in what is meant by a free America as a result of greed and not living up to what it’s known for, “The Land of the Free”. People made brave move from old world through many shores to build the now known America. The narrator however did not lose all hope. In the last lines of the poem, Hughes showed that in the end, the freedom would be worth the while. He expressed hope in a way of an oath that “America will be!” that America would become that land of the free, the American had dreamt it to be.
