Original Essay. By Eric Loucks

                   The American Dream and How do you see it?


The American dream is a dream that once was a part of the live of the early Americans. They begin the dream after the revolution against the crown. Once we gained our freedom we then were able to grow and spread across to the Pacific Ocean. The Dream was for us to be free as a people not subjected and ruled by double standard that were in place during the beginning of our country. 

After a hundred or so years we were then able to free our brother and sister from the bonds of slavery. They too were then able to par take in the American Dreams there was still thing that needed to be done, but at least the ball was rolling to a freedom for all. If we go about hundred years all problem less Martian Luther King began to fight and bring equality to his brother that still were looked down on for being less of human because of their skin color and fought for the right of them. His was able to form a movement that was a great success. He was able to unite us and show that even if our skin color is different we are all the same. He is remember for all his exploit into changing the way people view them. 


This is the American Dream. Martian Luther King show what the American Dream really is and how we can embrace it. Now in the present we still have problems, but we are able to step into the shoes of other and try to get a glimpse of their lives and see the problem they have to go through. Today young people believe that the American Dream is dead other think it is alive. But only you can determine if it is alive or dead to you. Now once you have determine if it is alive or dead pursue your Dream if it is alive or continue living your life day to day. Nobody should tell if it is dead or not. Nobody should speak down on you. Nobody should really tell you how to live your life. Your parents and friends want to help you and aid in your choice for they want what is best for you just as you should want what is best for them.
