Answer 1

This week in American Literature class, we have read three texts that represent America. The first line that represents me is found in "I, Too," which states, "I, too, am America" (line 11). The second line that represents me is found in "America, I Hear America Singing," which states, "Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else" (line 7). This represents me because it highlights the spirit of inclusivity and diversity that is at the core of America. The idea that everyone contributes their unique voice to the collective American experience resonates with me, as it emphasizes unity amidst diversity. Similarly, the notion in "I, Too" speaks to the importance of recognizing all Americans, regardless of their background, as integral parts of our national identity. I believe that America is continually shaped by its diverse voices, and I find pride in that variety. In conclusion, I can relate to the America stated in texts from decades past.
