Analysis Of Jesse Williams Speech

Some examples of convoluted sentences from the text are “His father,” and “The people I meet.”

Martin Luther King Jr. built his speech around fighting unjust conditions placed on both African Americans and soldiers of the Vietnam war with non-violent protest. King is arguably the best speaker the world has seen, he knows how to get his audience passionate about the problems America faces while also informing them of what causes these problems.

A highly influencing person that visited to our school was Bobby Jones. He came to share his story with us on October 23. Bobby Jones grew up in Yankton, South Dakota, with his parents, his brother, and his sister. Bobby came to persuade our students about staying on track and not to go down the wrong paths in life. A powerful message was delivered that day. He had a very specific goal, which was to tell us his story and give us more of an insight to stay focused on life. Bobby Jones had great information for everyone and I will always remember this presentation. He had a unique way of getting the audience’s attention. Frequently, he would do clapping exercises with the audience, which was very fitting due to the audience members who attended. There were middle school students at this speech as well as high school students. In that aspect, I feel as if he did a great job adapting to his audience.

In this he reaches out to all backgrounds and religions to try and unite them in the common cause. Claiming that they have all suffered in this together. And that to be aware that it is election year and that the white man will smile at you most when he needs you and look down upon you when he doesn’t. This speech resonated because I could not help but think of this year. 2016 is an election year. Yes we have come a long way but not as far as we had hoped. We are still facing the race debate. And many of the battles and obstacles that Malcom X faced then, are still being faced

If I were at the Walk on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, MLK’s speech would have had a greater impact on me. In the MLK speech his tone brought in the audience and got them into the speech while in John Lewis’s speech he had the same tone and energy all the way through, so as a demonstrator I would have easily got bored.

President Obama seems to be a contemporary master of Rhetoric, captivating multiple audiences at once while seamlessly following Cicero’s six parts of speech, but to what effect? In 2013 it was imperative that President Obama connected to multiple facets of people. We saw the beginning of a divided America during this time. Today, we only see this country more polarized. It is nearly impossible to get every family member to agree on a political topic, let alone a whole country. In that regard President Obama’s mission look insurmountable. Though, through the organic weaving of his audiences he attempts to accomplish to impossible. Throughout his speech broadcasted to the American public regarding 2013’s Syrian Civil War, President Obama

Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sr. came to Montevallo High School auditorium on March 3 2017 to talk to the student of Montevallo High School about being together. At the beginning of his speech, he told everyone about his life. Then , he read the , “ I Am Somebody” poem by Rev. William Borders, Sr. At the end of his speech, he called all the 18 year olds to come up to register to vote.

David Foster Wallace talks about how the commencement speakers should speak about why they were chosen to give the speech. And why they are where they are basically how the college has made them accomplish. Every graduation anyone has ever been too everyone always belittles the commencement speeches

After reading and analyzing Dr.Kings “Remaining Awake during a Revolution” commencement speech that he presented at Oberlin College during his graduation ceremony; he wanted the people to have a good visual on what he was explaining and talking about. King wanted to inform the people about what was going; so he used allusions, statics, and logos.

The first speech I’m going to take a look at is Barack Obama’s speech. At the time, John Kerry was the democratic candidate, and Obama held the keynote spot at the DNC. This speech needs little introduction, and I think it is the most effective of all of Obama’s speeches. Why the most effective? It turned him from a political nobody with massive potential who was known little by political circles

Former President, Barack Obama, in his speech “Obama’s Commencement Address at Arizona State University”, the purpose is to convey the ideas that there is always more to do, always more to learn, and always more to achieve. His rhetoric is so successful because of his effective use of pathos, kairos, and structure matters.

Actor, model, and activist, best known for his role as Dr. Jackson Avery on Grey's

 He knows that a black man's status is very little during that time, and he starts off his speech by stripping himself of status. He discounted any other identifying aspects about him by saying he is there as nothing else but a black man. He emphasizes that he is representing no one else but the people there that day by saying he was not their for a political part or religion. This makes him un-biased and credible to his audience.

Life was difficult for African Americans before the passage of civil rights laws recognizing equal rights. They were constantly insulted with comments of racism. The photograph of a lunch counter protest from the article “Miss. honors 50th anniversary of its Woolworth’s sit in” in the USA Today shows three protesters being abused by an angry mob. From the photograph we can conclude racism was a big thing blacks had to deal with every day.

There are many great speakers in the world that Gave great speeches. Some of these are Al gore addressing the climate crisis, Malcolm X and his “A Black Man’s History” and President Barrack Obama‘s 2004 Keynote DNC speech. One speech that stood out to me was Ronald Reagan’s “Tear Down this Wall” speech he made in West Berlin in 1987. He is a remarkable speaker and portrait some speaking traits that I can adopt in my speeches.
