Book Lured by the American Dream

Download or read book Lured by the American Dream written by P. James Paligutan and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting in 1952, the United States Navy and Coast Guard actively recruited Filipino men to serve as stewards--domestic servants for officers. Oral histories and detailed archival research inform P. James Paligutan's story of the critical role played by Filipino sailors in putting an end to race-based military policies. Constrained by systemic exploitation, Filipino stewards responded with direct complaints to flag officers and chaplains, rating transfer requests that flooded the bureaucracy, and refusals to work. Their actions had a decisive impact on seagoing military’s elimination of the antiquated steward position. Paligutan looks at these Filipino sailors as agents of change while examining the military system through the lens of white supremacy, racist perceptions of Asian males, and the motives of Filipinos who joined the armed forces of the power that had colonized their nation. Insightful and dramatic, Lured by the American Dream is the untold story of how Filipino servicepersons overcame tradition and hierarchy in their quest for dignity.

Book Lost in the American Dream

Download or read book Lost in the American Dream written by Dennis McDaniel and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lost in the American Dream examines the spiritual perils of today's material minded culture. Author Dennis McDaniel writes that we are born with an 'inner hole' in need of filling-a spiritual hole that living the American Dream cannot fill, a hole only God can fill. Those who turn away from God to pursue American Dream prosperity invite spiritual consequences, as life gets 'lost in the American Dream.' The author employs scripture, personal anecdotes and humor to present a compelling analysis of why the American Dream can empty rather than enrich life, resulting in houses filled with things, resumes filled with accomplishment, but lives devoid of spiritual understanding, direction and peace."
