American+Family+Reflection

I chose to center this wall on the American family. I have always had a strong commitment to my family and I see that as a fundamental American characteristic. This feeling was heightened upon reading //The Grapes of Wrath.// It seemed as though the Joads would do anything for each other. I included one of my poems from earlier in the year that I wrote about my sister. My sister and I have always had a close bond. I wrote this poem while she was studying abroad in Italy and I thought it was a perfect example of the feeling of an American sibling.
