What Is an American Today

Abstract: This 14 page report discusses how one would describe what an American actually is to someone in a remote African village. As Americans meet peoples of the world, they find it is difficult it is to be confronted with unexpected and difficult questions. In developed societies an American may be faced with confrontations, in such a way as to feel as though they are being personally criticized or attacked for simply being an American. However, it may be even more unnerving to answer the simple and ingenuous question of what an American is. It requires some in-depth personal awareness to even begin to answer such a question for that African villager. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
