English

Please view Gad Elmaleh’s American Dream on Netflix

Identify one quote from American Dream that stands out to you. This quote is what could be called a flashpoint. A flashpoint is “a quote that resonates with you, that reflects a moment of high interest in the text. It’s not so much a ‘main idea’ as it is something that provokes you, that challenges your previous assumptions, that encourages new thinking (and writing!) about a topic or an event or phenomenon.” Write about a flashpoint/quote along with a brief reflection on why it is meaningful. This should be one paragraph.

Please identify one rhetorical strategy in “Bootstraps” (attached below) that you found effective and provide a few examples from the text. When including textual citations, please refer to MLA’s style for in text citations. This should also be a paragraph.

Listen to this podcast called Three Miles: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/550/three-miles you can write a reflection about “Three Miles” or you can use one of the questions below.

1. Why did Melanie drop out of school? What reasons does she give? Why do you think she dropped out of high school? Why didnt she go to college? Should she have?

2. How did the Fieldston visit impact Raquel? What are some of the difficulties Raquel experienced in college? Name some resources that are available at St. Johns to address some of the challenges Raquel experienced.

3. Raquel, Melanie, Jonathan, and Pablo all describe what is called imposter syndrome. Imposter syndrome is a psychological pattern in which an individual doubts their accomplishments and has a persistent internalized fear of being exposed as a fraud. Talk about how imposter syndrome impacts each of these people.

4. Chanah Joffe-Walt is the narrator and the reporter for this story. She says:

I met Melanie in November, and I still call her most weeks just to say, so what happened– with your dentist, with your grades, with that meeting with your professor? I keep expecting there to be news, like she’s about to get her big break or something and things will happen for her. It feels suspenseful, but nothing has happened for her for 10 years.

I think it’s some special brand of American pathological optimism that so many of us believe the story of Melanie has to turn out to be happy. And that if it doesn’t, something unusual has happened– and not just this is what happens all the time, that the supermarket might be full of Melanies.

What are your thoughts on the framing of this story and also these last lines?

5. Discuss Jonathans story as a group. What were the obstacles he faced at Wheaton College? Why didnt he reach out for help? Who could he have reached out to? Why do you think his relationship with Raquel ended?

Snyder Safe Airline SMS Policy Statement
To prevent aviation accidents and incidents our organization will maintain an active safety management system. I support the open sharing of information on all safety issues and encourage all employees to report significant errors, safety hazards or concerns. I pledge that no staff member will be asked to compromise our safety standards to get the job done. Safety is a corporate value of this company, and we believe in providing our employees and customers with a safe environment. All employees must comply with this policy. Our overall safety objective is the proactive management of identifiable hazards and their associated risks with the intent to eliminate their potential for affecting aviation safety, and for injury to people and damage to equipment or the environment. To that and, we will continuously examine our operation for these hazards and find ways to minimize them. We will encourage hazards and incident reporting, train staff on safety management, document our findings and mitigation actions and strive for continuous improvement. Ultimate responsibility for aviation safety in the company rests with me as the President. Responsibility for making our operations safer for everyone lies with each one of us-from managers to front-line employees. Each manager is responsible for implementing the safety management system in his or her area of responsibility, and will be held accountable to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken.

Describe a challenge, setback, or failure you have faced and overcome. What did you learn from this experience?

The challenge would be relocating from the Commonwealth of Dominica to St. Vincent and the Grenadines in the latter part of high school due to a major hurricane, Hurricane Maria, in September 2017.

I overcame this challenge by putting my best foot forward at my new school where I became a Prefect. I also was at the top of my class. Did great in my Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate, and got awards at my graduation for being the best accounting student, and the 2nd best overall business student.

I then began college at Berkeley College in New York last year. I made it on the President’s list twice, and on the Dean’s list once. I also served as a New Student Orientation Leader, and I am a fully inducted member of the National Society of Leadership and Success, and member of the Alpha Sigma Lambda Honor Society.
