Bozeman Magazine

It’s long been the mythology of America that anyone--regardless of class, race or gender--can rise from rags to riches if they have a bit of natural talent and an inclination for hard work. But is this really true? Has it ever been? What is the American Dream?  Join us to discuss the shifting attitudes about the notions of meritocracy and privilege; and how our feelings about the American Dream can affect our behavior, politics, and even our overall sense of well-being.

Moderated by Dr. Jelani Mahiri
Panelists Ariana Flores, Matthew Staiger, and Shane Doyle
