Can someone write me an essay on “What does it mean to be an American”?
Just needs to be a couple of paragraphs and have a thesis and conclusion doesn’t have to be longer than a page.
Answer:
I wrote a basis, just add some adjectives and words of your own and you'll be good to go! :)
Explanation:
America, one of the most interestingly built countries in the world. Other countries know America for a plethora of things: economy, government, population, but nobody except for those who reside in the country truly knows what it means to be an American. To be an American means to be proud, work hard, and never give up.
Pride is often considered a weakness. We often look at those who are prideful as cocky and over the top, but when it comes to Americans, there is no such thing as too much pride. To truly be an American you can't just live in the country, you have to have pride for your homeland. You have to be grateful and excited that you live in the USA, that your forefathers fought for your freedom. That is truly the mark of an American patriot.
Hard work may just be the basis of our entire country. No ethnicity, language, or culture can define us, but hard work can. More than any other defining factor, hard work has built America from the ground. Through centuries of tears, growth, determination and blood, America has come to what it is today. Not to say that this country is perfect, but it has come farther than perhaps anyone expected in a short period of time.
The final factor that makes a true American is the idea of perseverance, or never giving up. America has created a great civilization, a great place for people to give up, but without perseverance, it couldn't be possible. In fact, if our Continental Army had given up on a hard day at Valley Forge, America maybe would not exist. Never giving up is the basis of the country in all senses.
In conclusion, to be an American means you work hard, you take pride in your country, and you never give up. These are the things that have built our country and they are the things that define us as American people.
Hope this works for you! Sorry if it sounds rushed- tried to get it done ASAP!

Explain the context of this quote
Put the quotation in your own words.
"Do that which is good, and no harm shall come to thee." Crucible act III
Answer:
"John Proctor reminds Mary a few times of this quote from the book of Tobit (also known as Tobias). This book is part of the Biblical Apocrypha, which some Christians consider to be part of the biblical canon. In this Apocryphal story, Tobias sends his son, Tobiah, on an errand. Tobiah goes, unknowingly, with an archangel (who is disguised so he cannot recognize him). According to this story, Tobiah meets a woman named Sarah who was plagued by a demon. This demon keeps killing her husbands on their wedding nights, which leaves her in great despair. Tobiah grows to care about Sarah and decides to marry her, despite the demon. Raphael tells Tobiah that no trouble will come to him if his behavior is good. In other words, because his love for Sarah is good, the demon will not overpower them. Raphael also gives him instructions to use a special fish's heart and liver to ward of the demon on their wedding night. On the evening of their marriage, Tobias is able to drive off the demon by faithfully following Raphael's instructions.
In this scene in The Crucible, John Proctor is encouraging Mary to tell the court the truth about Elizabeth and the doll that Mary gave her. Previously, Elizabeth was accused of being a witch because she owned a doll that had a pin stuck in its belly. Mary made this doll as a gift for Elizabeth and put the needle in the stomach to store the needle. Abigail, who saw this, used the opportunity to try to get Elizabeth in trouble. Abby stuck a pin in her own stomach and accused Elizabeth of using the doll to put a curse on her.
John Proctor knows that Mary is afraid to oppose Abigail by telling the court the truth. Abigail has gained such a powerful position in the Salem Witchcraft Trials; the judges listen to her accusations closely. John Proctor reminds Mary that there are Biblical examples where people do hard things for the right reasons and evil is conquered. Unfortunately, Mary eventually gives up; she abandons John and Elizabeth Proctor and allies herself with Abigail and her lies. She chooses to keep herself safe rather than to do the right thing."

How does Baldwin feel about their village?
Answer: Baldwin declares that, while he is a stranger in the village of Leukerbad, he also feels like a stranger in the village of the United States of America as an African American.
Explanation:
Baldwin's experience in the Swiss village is one of absolute isolation. Where a white person would likely find the village a close-knit, harmonious place, Baldwin feels a profound sense of alienation.
What is Baldwin's tone in Stranger in the Village?Two of these emotions, amazement and indignation, are germane to Baldwin's experience as an American black man. For Baldwin's ancestors, these two sentiments fuel debates over the "Negro" and their rights to be deemed "human beings."
Baldwin recounts his summer 1951 adventures at Leukerbad, a small, secluded Swiss town. Residents of Leukerbad were attracted by Baldwin's blackness; they had never seen a black man before, making him a foreigner in the community, according to Baldwin."
Baldwin argues that, while he is a foreigner in the town of Leukerbad, he also feels a stranger as an African American in the village of the United States of America.

His intended audience are people that are considering revenge for a wrong done to them.
