Answer:

In the novel Grapes of Wrath, the American Dream has been portrayed as a failed proomise by the author. The characters were able to relate to this failed promise of American Dream when they came to America in search of occupation during the Dust Bowl.

Explanation:

'The Grapes of Wrath' is a novel written by John Steinbeck. The novel narrates the story of Joads and their migration to California in search of work from their homeland Oklahoma during the Dust Bowl.

The author has tried to portray the failure of American Dream in the novel. For most people, American Dream has been a promise of liberty, freedom, and success.

What are solutions to end transgender discrimination?​
soldier1979 [14.2K]
Look at your favorite organization's policies and ensure that transgender people are welcome to join your country club, your work union or your book group.
2. Volunteer to help get a transgender-supportive candidate elected.
3. Ask your local film festival to include films inclusive of transgender issues.
4. Work to pass a non-discrimination policy in your workplace. Slightly less than one-third of Americans live in a jurisdiction with laws that ban employment discrimination based on gender identity and expression.
5. Submit an op-ed to your local paper about the transgender community. This is an effective way to express opinions and distribute information on transgender issues from a variety of voices.
6. Plan or attend a Day of Remembrance Event every November 20. This is a yearly opportunity to remember those lost to hate-motivated violence directed towards the transgender community, and also a time to encourage people to take action to make the world safer.
