differently than that person does and also everyone goes through different paths of lives. The third book Claudette Colvin: Twice Toward Justice is about Claudette Colvin a young lady of color that lived in Montgomery during the Civil rights time hers takes place in 1955. On her way home from school she took the bus and she sat in the front of the bus. Instead of giving up her seat to the white woman Claudette refused to give up her seat and was later arrested for this

indispensable in shaping the course of history, driving individuals to confront injustice, advocate for their beliefs, and catalyze progress. Consider the courageous defiance of Claudette Colvin, as depicted in Philip Hoose's "Claudette Colvin: Twice Towards Justice." In the face of segregation laws in 1800s America, Colvin refused to yield her bus seat to a white woman, asserting her right to equality. Her act of resistance, though met with societal backlash, exemplifies the transformative power of

“Ethos, Pathos, and Logos are modes of persuasion used to convince audiences.” In the video, “Breaking News: Some Bullshit Happening Somewhere”, uses Pathos very well by provoking the audience to laugh and feel sorry for the residents. The actual “Bullshit”, is the language given by the news anchors and how careless the “somewhere” is to have a bear loose. The language actually pulls readers in and some find it funny rather than inappropriate. There were no facts included in the video, so there’s

However, her case was not pursued by the NAACP as one of the charges against Colvin was assult. What the NAACP wanted was a case that was simply one involved with segregation with no other issue that might cloud the case. The state of Alabama dropped the segregation issue against Colvin and simply pursued a case of assult and battery. In Colvin’s case in Browder v Gayle that was to end up in a federal court in February 1956 and it

When Claudette and her friends went onto the bus there weren’t any white on board so didn't have to pay then get off and go through the back door of the bus. They were free to go down the aisle. Claudette and her three friends sat in the same aisle. But as they went down every block the bus started to fill up with more and more white and black passengers

In this video there wasn’t much ethos, credibility, built considering the speaker was drunk the entire time her talking. From the very beginning of the video she couldn’t even pronounce a word describing Claudette Colvin. Her being drunk made me wonder is what she is saying true and if I should actually believe it. Even though there was not a lot of ethos, there was some pathos. When she narrates the the lady on the bus saying “You have to move, because I’m white”

Two great women in history, Claudette Calvin and Rosa Parks, who refused to give up their seats on a bus, because of segregation laws. Both women went through trials and both women overcame their conflict and changed history. Claudette Calvin and Rosa Parks both brought awareness to the issues in segregation and the way that black people were treated. Calvin and Parks responded to conflict by standing up for what they believe. The best way to deal with conflict is by standing up for what you believe

women. People today know Rosa Parks as the pivotal for the main cause of Montgomery Bus Boycott, but it was not just her, it was also Claudette Colvin. She was one of the four women who got arrested nine months before Parks in March 1955. Colvin’s situation was similar to Parks; Colvin refused to give up her seat to a white passenger on a Montgomery bus . Claudette was only fifteen years old at the time of the arrest. She was also a member of the NAACP Youth Council. The NAACP wanted to test the Montgomery

by the name of Claudette Colvin took a stand by not giving up her seat to a Caucasian woman. Rosa Parks and Claudette Colvin both lived in the same city and took the same bus line. Two women took the same path yet one was shunned by her community while the other was praised and became the face of the movement. What made Claudette so undesirable? Claudette was a teenager at the time and the NAACP and other black organizations felt teenagers were unreliable. Additionally, Claudette didn’t have the

I was furious when the leaders of the civil rights movement believed Claudette was not a good example for the movement so they completely left her alone. I hated how they abandoned her in a sense when she had a child because it was deemed inappropriate and she was not allowed to tell her story. I can not comprehend people who have the same goal but refuse to accept the help of others because of their age of gender. Claudette would have been a great example of the unfair treatment of people of color
