The Melting Pot Myth

For centuries the United States has provided individuals with citizens a personal opportunity and has brought hope to many people around the world. Immigrants went to the country to express their religious beliefs and hope that they will not be tried or punished. The newly discovered American residents thought of an opportunity full of "American dreams". This dream brings people of different races together, allowing them to interact and ultimately accept each other.

This edition of American history is more than just the truth. It is no coincidence that immigrants come to America to find economic opportunities. The scientific and technical outcomes of the United States are worthy of praise and they are also due to the openness and vitality of the American political order. However, the past success of the United States is due to the unique strengths of the United States. This new country is fortunate to have rich natural resources and a navigable river. Fortunately, apart from other major powers, fortunately the local population has not advanced so much and it is very sensitive to diseases in Europe.

This article follows the development of the American "crucible" story. This is the subject of important academic criticism, but this story is still a central myth and symbol of the American national identity. Discussion in Congress shows that it is useful to justify immigration policy and popular discourse often quotes the symbolism of the furnace. The furnace description also resonates with the masses as it also includes US immigration experience and public unity. The article also emphasizes that this myth is built almost entirely around culture, ignoring the larger structural differences between ethnic groups.
