Friday, September 7

Starter 9.7: Watch the new Nike ad "Dream Crazy." Relate this video to any of the concepts of rhetoric we have learned thus far.


Work Time on Group Analysis (Don't forget to share it with me!)

Discuss Rhetorical Analysis of Dr. King’s speech


Malcolm X: By Any Means Necessary
  • How is Malcolm X’s message both similar and different from MLK’s?
  • What exigency do they have in common?
  • How are their appeals different?  What might this have to do with audience?
  • Which rhetorical strategy do you think has been more effective at bringing about change?  Why?


JOURNAL 9.7 MLK Jr. /MALCOLM X


  • How do both MLK’s and Malcolm X's rhetoric impact you personally as an "audience member," an American, as a student of rhetoric?
  • Reflect on the ideological progress we have or haven’t made as Americans since the exigency of the Civil Rights Movement.



WORK TIME:
