In a five to seven-page, MLA8 formatted paper, you will analyze each of the readings and the videos. Some potential questions that can be asked and analyzed include:

How does the author/musician portray the American dream using language and/or visuals?

What are the central themes in the material?

What are symbols used in the material?

What is/are the point(s) of view in the material?

You must use two outside sources, i.e. articles/newspapers/online sources, to support any argument you make. You must also use in-text citations that identify quotes from the outside sources, and from the sources given.
