What America Means to Me

In the weeks between Election Day and Thanksgiving students were asked to consider what America means to them. They searched for songs that stirred in them a connection to their country and their place within it. What they came back with were a patchwork of Golden Age Standards, Jazz Ballads, Contemporary Classics, and Movie Musicals. Enjoy.
