A Summary Of Naomi Klein'sNo Is Not Enough

They take the worst situations and turn them into learning experiences that bring the country together. They prove that “Terrorism has led to devastation-and unity” (Quindlen 5), and they show it by joining together and helping each other out after a terrible act of violence. Quindlen uses Ethos in order to convey a specific emotion to the reader. Whether patriotism or peace, anybody who reads her work grasps a new understanding of how America is still around. After 9/11, American citizens were not complacent and did not whimper about and complain.

Despite the several terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania, America remained strong and united. In the speech “Address to the Nation on the Terrorist Attacks”, George W. Bush, addresses the terrorist attack of September eleventh to let the citizens know they can overcome a tragic and mournful incident by remaining unified and a powerful country. The primary audience are the citizens and the family members of the ones who had died or were involved in the incident. The secondary audience are the terrorists to let them know American’s are not scared and will stand together against them. Bush uses ethos, pathos, and figurative language to encourage the citizens to be stronger, united, and feel safe.

The momentous tragedy that occurred on September 11th, 2001 has been engraved into the memories of United States citizens. What began as an ordinary day quickly evolved into an tragedy no one could have predicted: thousands of lives had been taken and countless more devastated and ruined by the acts of terror. Although unpredicted, the horrific and frightening news affected all. The four planes individually plummeted into their targets—two crashed into the Twin Towers, another struck the Pentagon, and the final hurtled into an empty field—eliciting a wave of panic throughout the nation. The jarring images of commercial airplanes hijacked by members of the terrorist group Al-Qaida managed to instill a fear. As the terrified country anxiously fretted about the future, President George W. Bush delivered a speech to address the nation in order to soothe the tensions and worry. In George W. Bush’s “9/11 Address to the Nation,” the terrorist attack orchestrated against the U.S. is addressed with rhetorical devices such as parallel structure, imagery, and various appeals in order to inspire and heal the country.

The amount of knowledge and powerful words that can actually get to one’s head is amazing. Michelle Obama was the First Lady for 8 years and stood by former President Barack Obamas side. She is a great example of what today’s kids should look up to. A woman with dedication to her word. A woman with dedication to what she believes. It is pretty easy to say that she has become an impressive public speaker who can deliver a powerful speech to her supporters. In her speech at the DNC in 2016, Michelle Obama did not fill her supporter’s heads with politics and facts, but a great use of personal experience, feelings and connections. Her love for this country and her love for her family is one thing that brought her audience together. In fact, if it wasn’t the great use of ethos, pathos and logos Michelle Obamas speech would have probably have been like any other.

“Like the Great Depression and the Great Recession of old caused by our financial institutions, we have another epic crisis on our hands. This time: a Great Tribulation. Not from the banks or wall street, but one that has been gorging on the blood of her many, many victims in the guise of godliness. When in fact, this organization

There are many other things such as sexism, hunger, terrorism, unemployment, climate change, poverty, and water issues. In 2011 the city of Flint Michigan decided to change their water supplier. Shortly after, the residents began to complain about the water smelling and tasting funny, and even looking dirty. The iron levels in the water were nineteen times higher than the iron levels in their original supplier. But the people of Flint had not seen the worst of it. Most of the pipes that carried the water were made of lead, and it began to travel into the water. It was no longer safe to drink. In these situations, you can either stand idly by, or do something about it, and that’s exactly what Mari Copeny did. She wrote to President Obama asking if she could visit him in DC when she was there to see the congressional hearing about Flint. But he did something even better. The president wrote back saying that he would visit Flint and meet her there, and that’s exactly what he did. Through her optimism, she brought more light to this important situation, even though her letter to the president didn’t fix everything she still had hope for the future and said“Even if the water is bad we’re still

Judith Levine also thought back to September 11,2001,when” the president and the mayor were telling us we could defeat the terrorists by going out and buying more stuff”.Levine wanted to investigate feelings

She has lost all credibility due to recent scandals. I believe she is unfit to become president, both physically and politically. Although FDR was ill as president and propelled the nation in a desperate time, we as a country are not desperate enough to elect a president that is not healthy. She may be the candidate with more political experience, but with recent revelations about the Clintons, it makes her the worse candidate. My background and heritage may make me an unlikely Trump supporter, but that proves just how I little trust I have for HRC. This speech did not cause any change on my views or beliefs, as a matter of fact, it just confirmed my views. In her intent to humor her wealthy crowd, she really made a case for all supporters of Donald Trump by making these heinous remarks. Her comment opened the floodgates and allowed for criticism about her hypocritical stance on issues. Hillary Clinton did exactly what the media, politicians, and her own team accuse Trump and his supporters of doing; making insensitive and politically incorrect comments. The Trump team is taking advantage of this horrific comment and spinning it as if it was a scarlet letter, with the sole purpose of spiting Clinton. The word deplorable has gone as far as being printed on baseball caps, t-shirts, and even bumper stickers. Fortunately for them, supporters are responding positively. This comment was poor judgement

The stories she reports and critiques are characterized by 1) a fundamental circumvention of agency for the appropriated test subjects--primarily, working class Puerto Rican women and the placing of all blame for social problems upon "them"; 2) though she doesn't name it as such, a historical employment of misconceptions of genetics and hereditary in exerting control over "colonized subjects," "the poor," and women's reproductive and sexual histories**; all of this located in a "transition away from frank colonialism" (198). This is also a story of the displacement of poverty caused by colonialism onto disease, difference, "over-population", and the need for public health regulation from the mainland U.S among others

From the beginning she pulls the readers attention, she uses a metaphor “Eventually being perfect day after day, year after year, became like always carrying a backpack filled with bricks on my back”(Quindlen, 296). This metaphor is the most significant part of her speech as she continues to refer to this metaphor throughout the speech. She uses this for the purpose of appealing to the audience in a meaningful, and personal way, creating a connection between her and the audience as most students, not only college students, can probably relate to the feeling of being heavily put down by something , not necessarily what she is talking about. Her use of pathos is what makes the speech so appealing and interesting, because she makes it so relatable and easy to understand.

James Hansen’s appeal relies heavily upon Pathos. In his opening statement, as well as his closing remarks, calling for civil resistance, stating this is the most urgent fight of our lives, and finally, it is our last chance, is a persistent engagement of your emotional response. Seven points regarding fossil fuel use and environmental onslaught to obtain them appear factual. Consequently, the use of possible factual information amongst the plethora of Pathos loses any impact to the appeal it might have had, casting doubt on the validity of the information presented. Soliciting our mistrust of government is a useful, if not somewhat powerful, approach to capturing the audience’s intensely negative feelings towards perceived government corruption

During her speech at Roosevelt island, Hillary Clinton used the logical fallacy known as “Straw Man” many times. In the “Straw Man” fallacy the orator builds up an opponent’s argument to be more fragile than it would be otherwise, Giving them a target to knock down. Hillary leveled numerous accusations against her opponents in the Republican party, saying that they have been cowed by wall street, that they “trip over themselves promising lower taxes for the wealthy and fewer rules for the biggest corporations”. While republicans would argue that they support entrepreneurs, Hillary casts them as only concerned with the upper class while caring nothing for middle and lower-class Americans. She says “They want to take away health insurance from

In this essay, I will briefly explain what happened during the financial crisis of 2007-09, and also discuss the contribution of the government to the financial crisis.

The term the Shock Doctrine was created by journalist Naomi Klein in her book The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism which refers to the idea that economic liberalists formed an entire industry take advantage of disasters such as natural disasters or military coups and privatize everything they can get their hands on. The name of this industry is the Disaster Capitalism Complex and it is comprised of the corporations and organizations that see recently shocked areas as ripe for the emplacement of economically liberal policies and institutions. The term originated from an experiment that was funded, in part, by the CIA and took place in Canada where a doctor tested many different methods of shocking people such as electrodes,
