"America is a terribly difficult idea, filled with promise and impossible to live up to."

Between reading lots of postcolonial lit, rewatching The West Wing, listening to AmericanOxygen nonstop & Memorial Day, I've been thinking a lot lately about America. This playlist is the resulting mixture of poetry & music that ponders, asks, & attempts to answer what "The American Dream" means today.
