American culture

For many immigrants, the Statue of Liberty is their first impression of America. It marks a new opportunity in life, so this statue is a symbol of the American dream and its ideals. America is the birthplace of many cultures, races, traditions and values. In the past five centuries, almost all Americans or their ancestors have immigrated except Native Americans, Hawaiian Native Americans and Alaska Native Americans.
