Dear White People is a show about black students’ attempt to address and solve racial issues at their predominately white, ivy league institution. Each episode is told from the perspective of the main characters. The point of the film is to communicate a narrative that is not seen enough. The writers rely on stereotypes to certain extents for the purposes of dramatization, but they clearly show how no matter the shade and/or background of the black characters, they are all still directly affected by racism and prejudice around them.

She believed that it was better to show the people that she cares and that she is not just another shallow politician. In the film, Maggie is shown talking to the potential voters.

Many people take a stance and attempt to spread the word on the social injustices, such as slavery, that affect an abundance of people all around the world. These people, who want to see a change in the lives of several innocent people, use rhetoric techniques to influence the opinions of others in order to get the desired effect they want, which is to develop awareness related to the topic they are discussing. One effective rhetoric skill is ethos, the reliability of a source. In the movie Amazing Grace, William Wilberforce has a petition with signatures of people against the slave trade. Lord Charles Fox, who was in favor of slavery, switches sides and signs the petition in front of the Parliament.

In the Republic, Socrates starts the discussion with the definition of justice. When Thrasymachus angrily interrupts and gives his own definition, he in fact takes an opposite view on justice and argues that injustice is more advantageous and profitable. Glaucon and Adiemantus further develop Thrasymachus’ view with a theory of the nature and the origins of justice and claim that justice is desired only for the sake of rewards. In Amazing Grace, injustice happens every day at every corner of Mott Haven, yet there are still a lot of citizens trying to lead a just life. In the conflict between the authorities and the Mott Haven citizens, the ceaseless injustice in Mott Haven, and some people’s just acts, Thrasymachan view of justice is reflected.

When Kelley was a young girl, her father, US Congressman William Darrow Kelley, exposed her to many social rights issues, such as women’s suffrage and abolition (Carson and Bonk). Talking about these issues from a young age inspired her to introduce many reforms and change others’ lives for the better when she became older. Many of her successes can be contributed to a lifetime of discussing politics at the dinner table. Had she not had these experiences from a young age, she may not have made so many significant changes to the country.

In this address Clinton uses a combination of all three to try to convince people of her being the right candidate for the job. Clinton’s rhetoric depends largely on the fact of her being relatable in comparison to the millionaire Trump who makes up the much envied American and criticized elite.

Travel is another manner to learn about life away from usual life. Urry (1990) states that holidays, tourism, and travel “are consumed because they supposedly generate pleasurable experiences which are different from those typically encountered in everyday life.” The director John Landis demonstrates it in his movie “Coming to America” with Arsenio Hall, James Earl Jones, and Eddie Murphy (Akeem) as the principal character.

First Lady Michelle Obama has always been one known for her inspiring speeches and her commitment to women’s rights. In Manchester, New Hampshire, she is seen once again standing up for women and for this country by opening the public’s eyes to disrespect Donald Trump has shown for us. Throughout the entire speech the three rhetorical appeals of pathos, ethos, and logos, are all used effectively and powerfully to get her message across. She mainly targets the audience of empowered women but she also addresses the effect that voting for Donald Trump will have for men and women. Through the rhetorical appeals and the tone, she sets for her audience, Michelle Obama campaigns for the presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Equality and Justice - false promises a nation was created to protect. The historical drama, Selma (2014), directed by Ava DuVernay, depicts some of the struggles African-Americans faced in the pursuit of equality and justice during the mid 1950’s to 1960’s, and the role Martin Luther King Jr. played in his attempt to overcome such inequalities. Even before its release, Selma received backlash from critics who claimed it falsely depicted Lyndon B. Johnson at odds with Martin Luther King Jr, and alleged that the murder of the four girls at the Birmingham Church occurred in September 1963, rather than at the end of 1964, which the film suggests. Regardless of such claims, the film, Selma, does depict a historical event set forth by Martin Luther King Jr. in 1965. During this time period, racial segregation was prominent, especially in the southern states. The government justified such segregation based on the 14th Amendment’s wording of “separate but equal”. However, many African-Americans were dissatisfied and demanded true equality. It was not until the mid 1960’s, after Martin Luther King Jr. was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, that racial tension began to decline. Although Martin Luther King Jr.’s role was invaluable in the Civil Rights Movement and required great courage, Selma aims to portray a complex side of King, mixing his bravery and determination with self-doubts and internal conflicts in his pursuit of justice and equality.

Regardless of Jimmie and Maggie’s desire to break away from the miserable life within bowery, they find themselves unable to.

Selma is based on a true story that happened in 1965 in Selma, Alabama.

It made it more difficult for black to register to vote. In 1964 Rev Martin Luther king receives a Noble Pace Prize. The Civil Rights Act was outlaw segregation in all 50 states, but African Americans where still having trouble at that time. Martin decides voting should be there next fight. So, they march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama.
