Document Summary
How to best fulfill god"s plan for the chosen few. American exceptionalism- don"t think about the flaws and problems of our own. Development of an american literature in the shadow of europe and empire. Movement from white male social hierarchy to expanded subjectivities. Racial/ gender roles and changing societal expectations/ mores. Movement from production to the service (sales) industry. Trump- giving the blue colours a voice and purpose. Consumerism and traditional rules are not taken into account. They are always smiling and happy with what they have. Words that are candy coated but infectiously oppressive. Books that focus on and have engraved the american dream . Her happy ending or silver lining is out of reach and it is making a man happy. The bluest eye (read this just for fun)- challenges these ideas. Lecture two: providence (belief in god to provide) Put the trust in someone else, not yourself.
