In this video, Illuminations artists and distinguished UC Berkeley faculty explore the tension between the American Dream and current culture wars (defined as conflicts between different social groups aiming to impose their ideological/political beliefs on others) resulting from polarizing values and beliefs across the United States. In questioning some of the tenets underlying the American Dream, many argue that what would qualify as the American Dream for some is deemed as the American Nightmare for others, depending on one’s race, gender, religion or sexual orientation; those very identity markers are key points of focus in the ever-increasing social polarization we are experiencing today.
