Doron Taussig invites us to question the American Dream.
When Americans think and talk about our lives, we grapple with this idea, asking how a person got to where he or she is and whether he or she earned it..
Did you earn What you have? Did everyone else? The American Dream is built on the idea that Americans end up roughly where we deserve to be in our working lives based on our efforts and abilities; in other words, the United States is supposed to be a meritocracy.
