Robin Williams (The sociologist, not the actor), studied American culture in the 1970s and came up with his own list of values, which is largely still applicable today.

Use a Case Study
• Tuesdays with Morrie• God Grew Tired of Us• Bemused in America
Chris Salituro, Stevenson High School, [email protected]
Apply to Student’s Life
• Make it experiential.• Close your eyes. Think of someone influential in
your life. Now write down who you thought about and why you thought about that person.
• Now take out your cell phones and call that person and read what you wrote.

For Discussion
• How might American values of freedom, independence, individualism and personal control make it difficult to admit that we are dependent on other people?
• Why might this unwillingness make it difficult to complete the exercise?
