developing a country.
Grossberg's essay is attempting to say how the nation in the post war years is putting the nations fate in the hands of the youth, the baby boomer generation. His questioning lays with how could they define the nation when they don't yet know how they want to shape the country. Basically we can't say what the future will ever look like because it is forever changing. I agree with this because nobody knows what the future holds, you can have an idea but there is no defenitive answer. Gordons essay puts down the people who started categorizing the immigrants coming into our country. And how she doesn't appreciate displaying their weaknesses writtin in chalk on their chests. She views it at biased because some were rejected from even entering due to diseases and other harmful traits. I don't agree with this point of view, this country's immigration policy was a great step into making America evolve. There are always downsides to progress, but so many people prospered there are always going to be those who were stepped on to make it possible.
