In her essay “The Importance of Work,” from The Feminine Mystique published in 1963, Betty Friedan confronts American women’s search for identity. Throughout the novel, Betty Friedan broke new ground by seeking the idea of women discovering personal fulfillment away from their original roles. She ponders on the idea of the Feminine Mystique as the cause for the majority of women during that time period to feel confined by their occupations around the house, restricting them from discovering who they are as women. Friedan’s novel is well known for creating a different kind of feminism and rousing various women across the nation.

During his address to The Commonwealth Club of San Francisco on November 9, 1984 Cesar Chavez sought support for the United Farm Workers by using rhetorical strategies such as pathos, logos and ethos to convey his message that farm workers need to stop allowing other people to treat them like inhuman farming implements to be disposed of whenever the owner feels they’ve become unprofitable. Chavez's speech starts with a description of a tragedy that highlights the mistreatment of migrants and ends with the belief that the descendants of Hispanic farm workers are the future of California and their accomplishments will enrich the entire nation. The Cesar E. Chavez Foundation articulates that as leader of the United Farm Workers of America, Cesar Chavez, saw the hopes for better lives for Mexican, Mexican American, and Hispanic workers in the United States repeatedly raised, sunk, and revived again. Many factors contributed to this seemingly unending fluctuation from hopefulness to despair, and Chavez's

This report provides data on Mexico which includes the economy, geography, its society, and government. It also discusses how Mexico’s economy is becoming orientated toward manufacturing. In addition, it shows that the GDP rate is not growing. The report explores the transnational issues facing the country which are international conflicts, refugees and domestically displaced persons, and drug trafficking. This source will contribute to my final project because it provides facts on the measures I am using to determine the development of a country.

However, some believe, that a shift in the way we produce food may have some unintended consequences. They contend that poverty in nations such as Africa and Asia, is caused by the low productivity of the unindustrialized farm labor. The U.S. Agriculture Department projects, without reform, there will be over a thirty percent increase in the numbers of the ‘food insecure’ people in those nations over the next decade (Paarlberg 179).

The ideological perspectives of the planet Earth are varied at least, and all over the place at most. This variety of weltanschauung often results in one of two things; heated arguments between two or more parties, or position papers such as this one. For the purposes of this paper, I will be discussing three different sources provided for me within the assignment. Each one shows a different point of view on the topic of historical globalization and the legacies that followed after them.

In Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus Finch employs logos and diction in his closing argument to the jury and people of Maycomb in order to persuade them to see beyond their prejudice and free Tom Robinson.

During a time of unfair pay and working conditions for many migrant farm workers in America, a man named Cesar Chavez spoke out and instantly became a leader to these once defenseless people. Chavez devoted his life to improve conditions for farm workers, he began protests for better pay and conditions they went on “huelga” which means strike. Chavez united these farm workers and helped make their voices heard, creating a union to fight for their cause and the union was named the United Farm Workers Union. Chavez did not believe in violence so all of his protests were peaceful, Chavez’s protest techniques consisted of fasting, strikes, and boycotts. Although Cesar is dedicated and worked tirelessly the cause he fought for was not easy

Document C shows that Chavez’s willingness to sacrifice was effective because the image shows Senator Robert F. Kennedy, a future presidential candidate, with Chavez. The image’s description states that Kennedy was supporting Chavez. Along with that, Chavez said, “I am convinced that the truest act of courage, the strongest act of manliness, is to sacrifice ourselves for others in a totally nonviolent struggle for justice.” This image and excerpt show that Chavez was willing to make sacrifices for the movement that he was leading, and that these sacrifices helped bring more awareness to the issue about the rights of farm workers. The willingness to sacrifice is an important quality to have because in the long run, the sacrifice of a leader usually benefits the movement that the leader is a part of. People are astonished and inspired by a person’s willingness to sacrifice, and the sacrifice of leaders has a profound affect on their followers, and, eventually, on social systems. Chavez chose hunger strikes as a form of protest because it was nonviolent, it showed courage, and it was a sacrifice that helped make the movement successful because the sacrifice made a statement about the movement for the rights of the farm workers. The photograph of Chavez and Kennedy was important to the movement because it showed others that Chavez had support from a well-known politician, bringing more awareness to the rights of the farm workers. This caused more people to support this movement, putting more pressure on the growers to make the farm conditions better and to treat the farm workers better. The willingness to sacrifice made Chavez an effective leader because he made sacrifices that brought more attention and support to the movement, finally helping win union rights and civil rights for the farm

“The defendant is not guilty, but somebody in this courtroom is”-Atticus. In this novel, To Kill A Mockingbird, the author, Harper Lee writes that Atticus Finch defends Tom Robinson. During the trial, Atticus defends Tom and proves his innocence, however there was a biased jury, which led to Tom’s being charged as guilty. Atticus simply revealed to the court that Tom Robinson was innocent and that he should be released immediately. Throughout Atticus’s closing argument, he uses the three rhetorical devices--ethos. logos. pathos--to prove that Tom Robinson is innocent.

Through his organizing efforts, Cesar Chavez made a significant change toward the working conditions of migrant farmers which will impact many future generations. Organizing protests all around the Western United States to taking on many fasts in his lifetime, Chavez has been one of the most influential contributors to the fight for equal rights for farm workers. Chavez devoted his life to fighting for equal rights for everybody. Cesar knew first-hand how terrible the working conditions of a migrant farm worker were, they were underpaid, taken advantage of, and growers were racist towards the migrant workers. Without Chavez urging peaceful protests towards the farmers, there could have been many deaths in the fight for equality. Nothing

There are millions of commercials. All of them have different audience and purpose. Advertisement maker tries to convey audience to look at their point of view, which can be political, social or convincing them to buy their product instead of others. According to the article “Rhetoric and Advertising” more than 2,000 years ago the Aristotle came up with three different categories to describe how people use rhetoric to persuade people: ethos, pathos and logos. Each of these terms describes different way to try to reach an audience and convince them to agree with you. Pathos is an appeal to emotion, and is a way of convincing an audience of an argument by creating an emotional response. Logos is an appeal to logic, and is a way of persuading an audience by reason. Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and it is a means of convincing someone of the character or credibility of the persuader. Many ad makers use 2 of 3 techniques in their ad. Commercial maker uses logos and ethos a lot while making a commercial. For example, Luna commercial. Luna is a carpeting company who installs new carpet in houses at the discounted prices. They always have a promotions going on which includes get carpet in 2 rooms and get the 3rd one for free, by doing this they are attracting customers, this is example of ethos. They also have a catchy audio which makes people remember their number (773-241-LUNA) this is an example of logos. They also have family who are dressed well talking about how good their

Since the first human civilization, cheap, exploitable labor has been inherent to the economic system. This was illustrated in The Life of Peasants, one of the provided stimulus materials, in which it was accepted that providing for the upper classes was “the obligation of the servile class”. Ergo, the US can trace its history through the various exploited labor systems, starting with our dependance on indentured servants, to slavery, to our current reliance on undocumented workers.Unfortunately, the cultural progress indicated by the advancements of modern life, have not been paralleled by an alternate method of production. Worker exploitation, especially in agriculture, is conventional and commonplace. In the midst of the 2016 presidential primaries, with illegal immigration a hot topic among all candidates, it is becoming increasingly apparent that the people most often victimized by this system are mexican immigrants. “America’s immigration system is broken” - Hillary “The country has to be able to lock its doors” says Kasich. Trump suggests building a wall. Bernie advocates for comprehensive immigration reform and a path toward citizenship. Regardless of political leanings, our politician’s inciting statements whisper of truth. The immigration system is broken, and there is an overwhelming number of undocumented immigrants in America. An estimated 11.4 million of them (as of 2012 according to the department of homeland

The end of the 20th century is coming to close, and all of the sudden all you here is a group called the Zapatista Movement. The movement was recognized all over the world in a matter of a day January 1st of 1994, the indigenous farmers of southern Mexico took arms and declared autonomy from the Mexican State. This radical uprising was in response to the globalization and free trade agreement, more in particular The North American Free Trade Agreement that was in effect on January 1st of 1994 as was the movement. The Zapatista Movement response to the Free Trade Agreement was the people wanted land, liberty, and the ability to alter their own future as they please. However, the Mexican Government wouldn’t allow it, which gave rise to the Zapatista
