Anne Fadiman Quote
During the late 1910s and early ’20s, immigrant workers at the Ford automotive plant in Dearborn, Michigan, were given free, compulsory Americanization classes. In addition to English lessons, there were lectures on work habits, personal hygiene, and table manners. The first sentence they memorized was I am a good American.
