NOTION 1 : Myths and heros

American Dream 

-          Myth = popular belief

This story might be fictional and unreal

-          Hero = the main character in the myth.

Admired for his values and his actions.

PB :-Is the American dream a myth or a reality ?

        -What extent the American dream is a myth ?

1) American Dream :

The USA can be seen as a promised land where everything is possible.

Immigrants think they could become billionaires/ strike it rich. Only working in the USA. Some can succeed, but not everybody.

The doc, Dreamers and realistes shows that immigrants now are only dreamers who hope to improve their life condition by going to America. But they are too late since the economic situation has changed.

2) The land of success:

To succeed now, we need education and hight diploma whereas then we only needed courage and hard work and opportunities à USA: LAND OF OPPORTUNITY

° Had to be registered and examined by a doctor and officials: decides if they could enter in the United State Good physical condition / no mental problems or diseases / identities has to be checked)

° If suspected to be ill : marked with chalk ad had to be examined more precisely ( doctors strict with an eye disease : trachoma ) à disqualified from living in the United State.

Today = a lot of American people have ancestors who came to America via Ellis Island
