Thank you for the response. I feel heard and thank you for thoughtfully considering my concerns.
I think that you are 100% right in your summary about the works, and it is reassuring to know that you too felt like washing your hands after reading it haha. I will also be sure to be on the lookout for any feelings of victimization in the forum and to try and help dismantle it. I might not have spoken up, but in the Public Speaking class taught by Kelly Nickel, we were asked to alert our listeners of any speech topic that might traumatize our classmates so as to give them an option as to whether to stay and listen. It was a concept which I had not thought of before, but I greatly appreciated the reason behind it.
Once again, thank you

  • Rhetorical Analysis: The Social Dilemma

    For this rhetorical analysis essay I decided to reflect upon the somewhat recent documentary titled “The Social Dilemma”. From gen-zians to baby boomers, this film was dedicated to educating people on the impact of social media on today’s society as we have entered a tech-frenzy world. Just like many other people, I wanted to see what the craze was about when this film was produced back in 2020. From interviews with former tech company employees to societal examples, Jeff Orlowski used various rhetorical strategies to convey an important message within his world-famous film.

Jamila Lyiscott proves this by showing her different dialects and how they are all equally important. Lyiscott believes that the way she speaks towards her parents, towards her friends, and towards her colleagues are all one in the same.  Throughout the entirety of her speech, Lyiscott changes up her vocal patterns and dialects so that the audience can understand first hand what each of these dialects are.

    Harris and Alter also mentions Laurie Halse Anderson, an author whose young adult books are frequently challenged. Laurie says, “by attacking these books, by attacking these authors, by attacking the subject matter, what they are doing is removing the possibility for conversation.” This highlights how crucial books that discuss difficult topics are to our society. When books are removed from schools it does not allow students to review difficult situations that can occur. Books do not isolate one individual and their personal experience but rather uses a fictional character to discuss sensitive topics in a way that does not make kids feel alienated and teaches kids to be more empathetic.
