Denial is a burden manifested by Americans on a quest to ascend the social structure. Whether you

Although the word was never directly stated beyond the Bill of Rights, the abstract concept of ‘freedom’ underscores all of the documents, most eloquently in the Declaration of Independence. The idea “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights” extends far beyond pragmatic polity; it defines the American spirit. Its lyrical rejection of “absolute tyranny” courses through our veins, precipitating American individualism: a culture of independence

For many around the world, the United States have become known as the country of opportunity and success. Consequently,

People have many freedoms today but that wasn't always the case. In google there are 3 definitions of freedom one is the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint that probably is referencing slavery and freedom from a government. But the last definition is the most familiar the state of not being imprisoned or enslaved.That is the recent type of freedom we got rid of in the last hundred years we got rid of slavery in Dec. 6, 1865, the day the 13th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified. It didn't end on Jan. 1, 1863.

Freedom is what makes this fruitful and lustrous land our own, a place that we can call home. If it were

“Refuge in America” by Langston Hughes draws a picture of freedom as an event to be celebrated. “There are words like Freedom/ Sweet and wonderful to say./ On my heart-strings freedom sings/ All day everyday”(Hughes 907). Freedom is a privilege to have, valuable to many, and desired by those who are not fortunate enough to have it. We should not take for granted what is given to us by those who fought for it. For example, Martin Luther King,Jr. went to jail for protesting racial segregation in Alabama and was a public influencer when it came to events rallying people together in support. While there he wrote a letter in response to a newspaper article saying,”We will reach the goal of freedom in Birmingham and all over the nation, because the goal of America is freedom”(King 1109). He was bold in pursuit for freedom and became a major reason why everyone in America is equal today. The opportunities we are given would not be available without the freedom we were

I would like to begin by asking the same question James A. Garfield had asked in 1865, “What is freedom”, is it a bare privilege of not being

We, the American people, boast about, telling the world how we’re free and amazing. The title, the home of the free and the land of the brave, isn’t the best description. Throughout our history, freedom hasn’t been exactly free. Slaves, women, and people that didn’t own land, weren’t free. Freedom at one time in our country meant that everyone below you wasn’t free, but because you were then that meant the country was as well.

Immigrants renew our nation by injecting new capital, businesses, workers, and consumers into our economy, stimulating its growth. Immigrants offer to us a new, rich, and possibly exotic culture that gives us new insights into the deep histories and traditions of other nations. Immigrants give new perspectives on the journey of life, giving us the knowledge of the horrors of persecution and violent war that still persist in our world today. It is said that the success of our community is tied to the success of the people who make it up. As more and more people come to the United States in search of a better life, we must remember that it is our patriotic duty to welcome them and aid them in their quest to fulfill the American Dream. Indeed, we even may echo the famous words of “The New

I stand here today, to talk to the esteemed and prominent legislators of the United States Congress about those whose voices are often drowned out by the politics of their situation. As a diverse population in educational background, socioeconomic level, and nationality, there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to those who have immigrated to the United States’. Understanding this eliminates the need for false and harsh assumptions that only create a greater gap between our communities. Having grown up in a community made up of immigrants from every corner of Latin America, I can testify to the work ethic and integrity of the people who shaped me into the person I am today.

To be an American means to be free, but with such great privilege comes the greater

As an American in my generation, one of our most tremendous gifts is freedom. In America, we have the freedom of speech. With this freedom, I have the right to say anything and everything I want, when I want, and even protest against what I don’t believe. In this country, I have the freedom to be myself. I can have my own religion and change it whenever I like. Most countries don’t even get a choice. Last, I also have the freedom of expression. I can dress in whatever

America the land of the free and the home of the brave! Many people want to live the American dream, and the authors Neil Diamond, Dierks Bentley, Brooks and Dunn, and President Ronald Reagen. All the authors are expressing freedom in their texts.

John justifies his behavior by telling her he is “a doctor, dear, and [he] know[s]” (Stetson 6). However, instead of this helping her this only causes her to develop a fear of him and she becomes unable to converse with him. She states that it is “so hard to talk with John about my case, because he is so wise”, this shows us that John’s ‘superior wisdom’ does affect how she feels about her husband. When he tells her to trust him “as a physician when [he] tells her so”, this isolates her even further (Stetson 6). Though John has good intentions for his wife, he is unable to see that he may be wrong about how ill his wife really is, and how his evaluations are

One of the first gifts America has given my generation is freedom. Freedom pretty much means that we’re all equal or all have the same rights. As an example of freedom, freedom is of speech, religion, press, right, and assembly. As in the Declaration
