  • LIVING the DREAM by Karen Rank Hernandez Founder, WYCO Ethnic Festival and Former KCKCC BOT Member
    LIVING THE DREAM By Karen Rank Hernandez Founder, WYCO Ethnic Festival and Former KCKCC BOT Member The editor, Ewa Unoke, asked me to write a feature article for the e-Journal he produces at Kansas City Kansas Community College. We have collaborated on many projects together since we met because we are of like mind on many issues. One of those issues is human rights and civil rights for all people, both here in America and abroad. How we treat people, those who are like us and those who are different, ideally would follow the Golden Rule, but often times that rule has fallen by the wayside, much like the poor man who fell by the wayside in the Gospel of The Good Samaritan, who was passed by many before being helped by one who saw himself in the "other." That is what this writing will be about. How to see ourselves in others. For those who are religious, like myself, how to see the face of God in others. I am a Catholic and was baptized at birth. By claiming my faith up front, you will know that my faith has played a major role in my life. It is my Catholic faith that set me on the path that I have never veered away from and that led me to meet all the people God has put in my path to help me do what I am most passionate about, bring people together who would most likely never meet otherwise. These same people are part of the Beloved Community here in Wyandotte County, people who are friends and neighbors and those who are friends and neighbors we haven't met---yet.

  • The American Dream
    The American Dream Introduction If you could describe the essence and spirit of America, you would probably refer to “The American Dream.” First coined as a phrase in 1931, the phrase “The American Dream” characterizes the unique promise that America has offered immigrants and residents for nearly 400 years. People have come to this country for adventure, opportunity, freedom, and the chance to experience the particular qualities of the American landscape. Consequently, different groups of people have left their imprint on the philosophical foundations of this country and contributed to what has become a modern American Dream. In this unit you will explore the foundations of the American Dream and some of its modern representations. The unit will prepare you for a wide body of literature that continues to incorporate this concept. In fact, one of the goals of this unit is to expose students to the wide variety of genres that they will need to become proficient in analyzing through the course of the year. In addition to the O.Henry short story, “Mammon and the Archer,” and the excerpt from A Raisin in the Sun, the following texts are included in this unit: Poetry Essays Interviews “Ellis Island,” Joseph Bruchac New England Primer “They Live the Dream,” Dan Rather “Europe and America,” David “The Trial of Martha Carrier,” Cotton Ignatow Mather “Lifelong Dreamer — Vietnam Boat “I Hear America Singing,” Walt “Moral Perfection,” Benjamin -Beth Whitman Franklin Person,” Mary McLaughlin “I, Too, Sing America,” “Sayings of Poor Richard,” from Poor “Roberto Acuna Langston Hughes Richard’s Almanack, Benjamin Talks About Farm Franklin “Indian Singing in Twentieth Workers,” from Century America,” Gail Excerpt from “Self-Reliance,” Ralph Working, Studs Tremblay Waldo Emerson Turkel “next to of course god america Excerpt from Walden, “Where I Lived i,” e.
