I can’t believe the victim that is raped has to go to jail for something that she doesn't control. I found that very unfair and horrible to imagine. Afghanistan, in general, doesn't view women as actual women because it shows that they can take advantage of any female and the victim will get punished for it.

Writing rhetorically is often a hard task for writers to do, it’s also one of the best ways for the people reading your work to understand visually the message you are trying to describe to them. When writing in general the best thing you can do for the readers of your work is to describe the visual elements for them in a fun and intuitive matter.

While reading La Cucaracha by Lalo Alcaraz, I thought it was interesting and funny since the political cartoons would show the stereotypes of Mexican-Americans. Lalo Alcaraz made this political cartoon in order to get his point across while also making it humorous. One cartoon that stood out to me was the one called “English Only”.
