Instructions:

For this extra credit assignment, I’d like you to do a few things.

  1. Watch the video below (10 min.).
    • As you watch, think about her message, and her rhetoric.
  2. In about 200 words or more, comment on her rhetoric (PACES).
    • What was her project and main argument?
    • What claims did she make?
    • What types of evidence and strategies did she use?
    • Was her rhetoric effective? Why or why not? In about 200 words or more, discuss your reaction to her message.
    • Do you agree with her or disagree, or are there parts of her argument that you both agree and disagree with?
      • Be specific and detailed in your answers.
    • If you agree with her notion that we should be better “unlikely” allies, detail how you will be a better ally to another group. What will you do specifically to help that group?
    • If you disagree, explain why you don’t think outsider’s should support other groups as allies.
