Week 10 Journal

Over the course of the two essay’s I’ve written this semester, I have changed topics. My first essay covered more of a science issue whereas my second essay covered a political issue. I am sticking to my political issue on whether the american dream is still alive, or even the fact that it all could just be a fake notion. My perceptions have not changed on the matter, I do not believe the idea of the ‘american dream’ exists today in our society. We now have a hierarchy most of us don’t realize that is determining our fate and success in this country. I believe I definitely need to do more research on statistics and first hand experiences on the misconception of coming to america on the notion of the ‘dream’ versus the reality of what it really like. With this information I can definitely write my research paper!
