The New American Dream
Courtney E. Martin
In this talk, journalist Courtney E. Martin redefines the concept of the American dream, suggesting that we need to create a new approach to work and family that emphasises community and creativity, over profit and productivity. “The biggest danger is not failing to achieve the American Dream,” she says in a talk that will resonate far beyond the US. “The biggest danger is achieving a dream that you don’t actually believe in.”
