From Angelica Mallak: In my podcast “Lets Dive Right In” I will discuss the importance of American Literature in todays educational system. I invite my listeners to ask themselves: Do you guys think that American Literature is important in our educational system? Should the American school system focus more on the reading abilities of students?. Then I will begin to elaborate on why American Literature is important for students in todays world and back up my statements with research. In this podcast I encourage my listeners to read books and explain to them some of the benefits they may receive from this accomplishment.
