Introduction to Rereading America..!!

I am U.S citizen but lived most of my life in another country. I can clearly see the difference b/w the life of other countries and U.S.A. As a U.S citizen, you have rights to freedom of speech, liberty, education , equality under law. America is a land of freedom and it gives a sense of pride to be an American.

Every U.S citizen has rights and responsibilities at the same time. You have to work hard and become strong to reap the benefits and priviliges as an American citizen . As an American, it is one of our responsibilities to think actively and positively and somehow in this way we can play our part in making U.S more prosperous land to live in.


However,Rereading America is a unique kind of book for me. This book indulges reader to think critically about myths and underlying meanings . I was not use to read and think critically the way introduction has described about thinking critically, and this course will lead me to think differently. I feel difficulty in making, and expressing opinions. I know there will be different opnions and views in the class than mine and I respect opinions of other people . Anyhow, this course will be a good headstart to change me a bit as a strong U.S citizen and a confident human being.
