The belief that the good in American society will finally win out... I don't believe any more.
Since I have come to America I am often asked whether my next novel will be set in America. I don't think it will. I think I will be living in America for some time to come but while living in America I would like to write about Japanese society from the outside.
We are now integrated into American society and I don't like the word fashionable because fashionable means that it's going to pass. It's not like that anymore.
I would argue that we have a generation of young people particularly minorities who are no longer putting up with the kinds of things their parents put up with. They're much more self-confident. It's no longer acceptable to make fun of people because of race or sex. But it has always been present in American society.
We're going to raise a lot of money for cancer awareness give some to the American Cancer Society and hopefully make a big difference.
I applaud the American Cancer Society for all they do to eradicate smoking. Their local state and national efforts help to discourage young people from taking up this deadly habit and the resources they provide have helped numerous smokers quit.
American society is a sort of flat fresh-water pond which absorbs silently without reaction anything which is thrown into it.
The devastating punch we took on September 11th still reverberates throughout American society.
American society as a whole can never achieve the outer-reaches of potential so long as it tolerates the inner cities of despair.
I believe we should work to end all racism in American society and staunchly defend the inherent rights of every person.
