On August 25th at six thirty P.M, one of the most devastating natural disasters the U.S had ever seen touched ground in Florida. Hurricane Katrina was a category five hurricane that had made its way to New Orleans by August 29th. This storm was so destructive that not only did it leave a mark in the gulf coast, but it put the whole country into complete turmoil. Spike Lee was one of the first people to try to start a movement and show the country what really happened during this brutal storm. In the film When the Levees Broke, Spike Lee does a fantastic job at using the people of New Orleans to back up his argument that the United

Hurricane Katrina made landfall in Louisiana on the morning of August 29, 2005. The storm produced sustained winds of up 125 mph when it hit that morning. On that same day Katrina caused 53 different levee breaches in greater New Orleans, spilling the waters of Lake Pontchartrain into the city and flooding an overwhelming majority of New Orleans. The floodwaters destroyed countless homes and lives along the way. Some estimates of the cost of Katrina were up in the 200 billions but according to Kimberly Amadeo, “The actual cost of Hurricane Katrina's damage was between $96-$125 billion, with $40-$66 billion in insured losses.” This

In this universe, there are many versions of one thing. An outsider looking in at the city of New York may ponder on the lack of manners and inherent coldness a New Yorker may possess. A person that is born there will not linger on such aspects. No individual lives in the same world as another one does. In “Here Is New York,” writer E.B. White defines roughly three New Yorks in which are able to exist simultaneously. His use of the different rhetorical appeals draws an in depth understanding of the coexistence of three worlds that are united by their shared sentiments.

President George Bush’s letter to President Saddam Hussein is a convincing segment intended to persuade Hussein to remove his forces from Kuwait before conflict ensues. Some critical readers believe that Bush does not provide a rational argument, but this paper is taking the standpoint that Bush not only is rational, but cogent. President George Bush is able to effectively convey his forceful message to President Saddam Hussein, expressing that Iraq must leave Kuwait through the use of establishing credibility, strength, repetition, and persuasive appeals by explaining that the world will not tolerate war and violence any longer.

Journalists are infamous for their motivation to produce hard hitting editorials, twisting the truth for their own selfish benefit. Steve Chapman strays away from this stereotype by ensuring integrity in every article. Continuously, Chapman strives to present the public with his analytical opinions. Douglas Adams describes the drive of Steve Chapman; “To give real service, you must add something which cannot be bought of measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity”. Steven Chapman, who writes weekly op-eds for the Chicago Tribune, delivers insight into national headlines using suggestive rhetoric appeals to address the reader’s fears of uncertainty followed by accredited reasoning, a condescending tone targeted at the written subject, calling the reader for reformation within society, and dashes to separate general statements from definitive fact, shifting from a mission-based point of view to thought-provoking opinionated writing in order to spark motivation within his readers using his opinions so that they can take action to better their communities in hopes of improving future national development.

On September 11th, 2001, tragedy struck America with the attacks on the Twin Towers and on the Pentagon. Not only did tens of thousands of New Yorkers see these atrocities firsthand but, millions of viewers watched in horror on the news; witnessing their nation under attack. Hundreds of terrified civilians ran from the carnage, however there were some who ran toward the collapsing buildings to save innocent lives. President George W. Bush stood with the fire fighters, the police and other first responders holding the flag of his nation and gave his address to the mourning citizens of the United States. He mainly used the strategies of ethos and pathos to try to comfort the American people and also have them rise and fight against the terror.

Throughout time, women have been considered housewives and mothers. Not all women stayed home, throughout history women have worked, mainly clerical jobs, teaching, charity workers, and other less demanding physical work. It was never a new thing that women were in the work force, it was the impact the propaganda posters and WWII made on the women in that workforce. This propaganda poster; titled “We Can Do It” features a beautiful women with her arm flexed and she is in her work coveralls, above her it say “We can do it.” the author is J. Howard Miller, he uses pathos and ethos to inspire a social movement that increased the number of working women, and changed the face of the workforce.

In recent events, Trump is trying to isolate America to the rest of the world while trying to deport people of a certain race/ethnicity. With the “Muslim Ban”, people began to see that Trump is doing things that they do not want him to do, and, more recently, people apart of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals programs (Dreamers) are under threat of deportation back to their home countries. An author, Leon Panetta, wrote an article about these events, and he wanted the whole world to know that even though Trump is the president of America, he does not truly represent the people. Leon Panetta uses rhetorical devices to help persuade his audience to know that Trump does not represent who Americans are.

The entire editorial board at the New York times decided to cooperate on an op-ed piece covered on Donald Trump concerning his post election actions and decisions. The Op-Ed was titled “What President Trump Doesn’t Get About America” and was published on the New York Times on January 20, 2017. The rhetorical situation behind the piece is the after-effects of Mr. Trump's official inauguration which took place on the same date the Op-Ed was published. The author's purpose and intended audience is to inform and persuade the American people that America was and will be fine even with some of the so-called harsh executive decisions of Trump.

After earning his master’s degree and Ph. D from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Famous historian William Appleman Williams of Atlantic, Iowa, wrote the book, The Tragedy of American Diplomacy in response to the rampant changing things happening around him. Enraged, Williams’ addresses several points with foreign policy being the main one. He encompasses several themes throughout his book such as American capitalism, the failure of American liberalism, and the Open door notes. These themes help convey his view on the matters at hand, which for a lack of a better term was pissed. Quite frankly, Williams’ gets straight to the point without being around the bush with his extremely biased views by going into depth about America’s morbid foreign policy.

The New York Times is a daily newspaper, that is published in New York City, since 1851. The newspaper has won 117 Pulitzer Prizes, and is the second largest in circulation. On November 11, 2015, The New York Times posted an editorial called “A Criminal Record and a Fair Shot at a Job.” Many places when you apply for a position ask if you have ever been convicted of a crime. In 19 states and 100 cities this is forbidden until after the applicants have proven their qualifications. Last week, President Obama ordered federal agencies to stop questioning people about previous arrests and convictions at the beginning of the application process. The editorial argued that the President shouldn’t stop there and that he should spread the executive order to

Living in this day and age, politics surrounds the world we know of. Politics represents the values and beliefs a person holds, dictating every move a person takes. Ingrained into everyday life, it’s no surprise there are millions of writings dedicated to circulate political interests. These columns are used to express opinions and ideas without the constraints of academic writing; therefore, appealing to those living average lives, those who make up the majority of society, and those who can largely influence the political outcome. Thomas Sowell, a popular conservative columnist, has written on a multitude of topics, most of which support a conservative stance on social issues.

Public intellectuals play a major role in promoting discussion and stirring debates in all fields. They contribute greatly to the publics understanding of the future until their view is proven flawed by occurrences or other intellectuals. Specifically, to international relations, public intellectuals play a significant role in predicting the future of events for international relations. Given the nature of uncertainty in the international arena individuals look to public intellectuals for clarity on the events or issues put forth. Thomas Friedman is a public intellectual and New York Times journalist, his insights and predictions are valued by many. Another public intellectual was Samuel Huntington and he was very controversial for writings

The Golden Gate Bridge is “considered to be one of the best and most beautiful examples of bridge design” (Poel and Royakkers 110). Unfortunately, this bridge is also "the US's most popular place to commit suicide" (110). Due to this fact, bridge designers decided that they needed to consider the option of installing some sort of suicide prevention system. Before any decision was made, the ramifications of both implementing a system and not implementing one had to be considered. Deciding whether or not to implement a system calls for an in-depth analysis of the ethics. One must identify the ethical dilemmas present, and provide analysis on the effects on all the stakeholders involved.
