Created in 6ft segments over the course of ten weeks, this multimedia piece attempts to depict the story and movement of Veira's family lineages, meeting in the middle to the “current day.” Touching on themes of Black existentialism and critical race theory, the narrative not only conveys her own experience growing up in Atlanta, along with her family's lives and struggles , but it also acts as a surrogate for the broader story of the movement of people of the African diaspora to the U.S. and the effort to succeed in an anti-Black, “post-colonial” society.

    The title "An America Dream" references the idea of freedom, economic mobility, property ownership, and bodily autonomy that everyone in America is taught to strive toward. However, due to the history of racial discrimination in the United States, these ideals are particularly difficult to achieve for Black and Indigenous people of color. Having watched her parents individually work to achieve these in their own way, Veira utilizes this work to contemplate her place in society as a benefactor of centuries of effort towards freedom.
