The music video 'American Oxygen' presents national identity through many videos of past events. It is mainly showing negative events that have happened in the US over the past century, which could indicate how they've made a lot of mistakes, yet people still fight for their patriotism no matter what. America is known as a very patriotic country, and sometimes other countries will feel that they try to rule the world, because of their acceptance in strong military attacks, some of which are shown in the music video.
There is a scene in the video where a white man is holding up a sign saying 'Nation of Immigrants, Nation of Ignorance' with a tick next to 'Nation of Immigrants'. This could show that although the white community don't like it, they've had to come to a realisation that it's happening, yet they will never stop showing their views.
