'Americanism' by Adam Serwer'Americanism' is a sample essay written by Adam Serwer in his 'Column' column of The New York Times. It was first published in the Summer 2020 issue of the book America: A People's History.I enjoyed reading 'Americanism' and thinking about it a great deal. The sample essay tells us a lot about the style and expertise of Adam Serwer. This is important since he writes about a variety of subjects in his 'Column.''Americanism' tells us what Adam Serwer learned growing up in the United States. He tells us how that helped to shape his work as a journalist. The lesson was learned and applied by Adam Serwer while writing 'Americanism.' His work, like most journalism, is not an easy one.'Americanism' is a personal and stylistic exploration of a person's upbringing. It is the story of a part of the country's history that people who lived in this part of the country usually will never see.When we were living in the past part of the country that Serwer writes about, w e had different view points than we do today. Our views about abortion, abortion rights, etc., were quite different from those in our part of the country. The subject matter of 'Americanism' includes these perspectives.'Americanism' is written from a non-judgmental point of view. That is a good way to go in writing an essay about any topic that is very sensitive and controversial. You don't want to fall into the trap of feeling you have to defend or justify your views on any issue.'Americanism' is not about political correctness or social correctness. The issue here is fairness and justice. This is why I think people will be interested in reading 'Americanism' even if they don't agree with the views that are discussed in the essay.For anyone interested in learning more about our country and its history, this sample essay from 'Americanism' by Adam Serwer, will be helpful. It is written for an adult audience and is set in a very specific time in our country's history.
