The story of my parents and how they have passed their American Creed onto me.

My American Creed is closely tied to my family history on my mom's side. My grandparents immigrated from Ukraine to Canada for a better life, and then my mom came to the U.S. for college and a better life.

My American creed is to be a real American, one needs to live to their full potential and strive to be the greatest they can be. My interview with my parents, about their different cultures, helps me understand how they are the American they are today.

My piece is focused on how my family and the community I grew up in have shaped my American Creed. Many of my family members are immigrants and I grew up in a town where I am a minority, giving me a unique perspective concerning equal treatment for minorities.

My piece explores diversity within America and how I integrate my culture and American culture into my life. This has helped me balance between different aspects of each while learning that the true definition of an American is the blending of differing backgrounds.
