The Dream is a vision of wealth and success for white Americans from "summary" of Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates
The Dream is a vision of prosperity and achievement that has been passed down through generations, woven into the fabric of American society. It is a narrative that promises rewards and opportunities to those who adhere to its principles. The Dream is not just a goal, but a way of life, a philosophy that shapes the aspirations and actions of those who subscribe to it. For many white Americans, the Dream is a birthright, an inheritance that guarantees success and fulfillment. It is a belief system that provides a sense of purpose and direction, a roadmap to a better future. The Dream offers a sense of security and stability, a foundation upon which to build a life of abundance and comfort. However, for black Americans, the Dream is not always attainable. It is a mirage, a false promise that leads to disappointment and disillusionment. The Dream is a reflection of systemic inequality and racial injustice, a barrier that prevents many from reaching their full potential. It is a reminder of the limitations and obstacles that exist for those who do not fit the mold of traditional success. In this way, the Dream serves as a dividing line between white and black Americans, a symbol of the disparities and disparities that exist within society. It is a construct that reinforces the power dynamics and hierarchies that shape our world. The Dream is a reflection of privilege and prejudice, a lens through which we view ourselves and others. As we grapple with the legacy of the Dream, it is important to recognize its complexities and contradictions. We must challenge the assumptions and biases that underlie this vision of wealth and success. We must strive to create a more inclusive and equitable society, one that values the contributions and experiences of all its members. Only then can we truly fulfill the promise of the Dream for every American.
