It’s not clear what examples any PP can provide that demonstrate a cohesive, team, cultural identity in america right now.
If you think tons of silo’d multiculturalism = sense of America Community then that’s a no. Didn’t work so hot in England tiger. All you have is a bunch of factions.

My parents generation grew up with different temples and churches in every corner in every language but get what? [b]Every generation learned English in a couple years[/b], played in the park and baseball together, watched the same TV shows, listened to the same music on the radio. People came to America and embraced it. They did not come to America and reject it and barely assimilate.[/quote]

First, it's not true that every generation learned English in a couple of years. See here, for example: https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=102523977

Second, people now are learning English just as they used to.

Third, I find this vision of America to be alarmingly conformist - and I was born in the US.[/quote]
