Instead of easily getting up and moving to another seat, Rosa defended herself. She did not just sit around and let those who discriminate her win. Instead, Parks was later then arrested and encouraged all the other blacks to stand up by not riding the busses. She then was put on trial and after a year Montgomery’s public transportation system was legally integrated. The history of Rosa Parks should and does inspire many.
On January 11 1885, a beautiful young girl named Alice Paul was born. Her mother Tacie Paul was one of the first women to attend college. Tacie would have finished but she dropped out and she spent her final year marrying William Paul. William Paul is Alice’s father who is a successful business and community man. Alice loves to read and remembers going to suffrage meetings with her mother when she was young.
Today I will be looking at several short videos and analyzing how the use of rhetoric persuades the audience. The first video, “Drunk History – Claudette Colvin and Rosa Parks” is about a young black girl (Claudette Colvin) in the 1950s, who refuses to give up her seat on the bus to a white woman. Because of this refusal, Claudette is forcibly removed from the bus and immediately arrested. Shortly after the release of Claudette, and fed up with
Much later in history, the Civil Rights Movement would prove this as much of the leaders for this era believed that non-violence is the key to change. Most prominently in the early days of the movement was on December 1, 1955 when Rosa Parks famously (and calmly) refused to give her seat on a bus to a standing white passenger (Clayborne 444-445). She reflects on this by saying “I had paid my fair and occupied my seat, I didn’t think I should have to give it up.” (Finkenbine 180) Consequently, she was arrested, which caused great ire among the Black community.
Everyday marshals had to take her to school because Ruby received so many threats. At William Frantz School there was a crowd of people protesting not to let Ruby go to school there, and when Ruby walked by they would scream and yell mean things to her. Parents to their kids out of school because
She worked as a seamstress in a tailor shop, and in her free time she worked with the NAACP as well. She wanted very passionately to end segregation as a whole, so she worked all day for the NAACP. In the poem, Dove states, “The time right inside a place” (line 2). This line shows the reader that the day was like normal until she got on the bus. She was going through her daily routines, but then she could just feel that she wasn’t right on the bus.
This speech by Florence Kelley is filled with numerous rhetorical strategies. Giving her speech in Philadelphia, she touched the hearts of many. Appealing to the emotions of the other women in the audience, Kelley got her point across. She despised child labor as she felt it was dangerous and inappropriate. By using rhetorical strategies such as imagery, anaphora, and forced teaming, she engages the right audience (women attending the suffrage convention) whom were already seeking change.
Speech Sounds 1) Summary A mysterious disease has swept across the nation and deprived many of their abilities of communication; speeches, literacy, as well as the lives of numerous people were lost. Rye, after the death of her family to the disease, was making a trip to Pasadena out of loneliness and desperation in search of her remaining relatives. While riding on the bus Rye encountered Obsidian, a man dressed in police uniform trying to restore peace in a society where miscommunication led to violence and government was obsolete.
According to Lia Parisyan of Literature Analysis, “a turning point of the Civil Rights struggle came when a woman named Rosa Parks refused to move to the back of a bus.” The use of a bus as a setting alludes to one of the key points of the historical context. According to Enotes.com , the bus “[allows] …passengers to reveal their various social prejudices.” Even Julian, who “[is] free of prejudice” is not immune: “he [has tried] to strike up an acquaintance on the bus with some of the better types.” By doing so, the author shows that there was still underlying tension in society despite the desegregation.
At first the people at her new school think that she is a teachers pet because she won't stop raising her hand in class. Which she then got beat up after school. She tried again at Mary S. Black Elementary but the teacher didn't like her so that didn't turn out very well either. When she went to Welch Elementary she was put into special classes. People then started to whisper about the Walls kids all day.
The DPS then took down the problem video and replaced it with another version. The footage shows that Encinia initially wrote a routine traffic violation warning for Bland. After he returns to her car and speaks briefly to her again, he asks her to put out her cigarette. She responds, "Why do I have to put out a cigarette when I 'm in my own car?" Encinia orders her to "get out of the car", and, when she repeatedly refuses to exit, he tells her she is under arrest.
In the story “Who Am I With Out Him?” by Sharon Flake, the narrator gave me a specific feeling that made me think that she was a real person. The way the narrator expressed her feelings made me feel she was telling them to me, she made me feel like I was on the same bus with her, when she chased a group of good girls till she got in a fight with Raheem. When the narrator got in the bus and saw that Raheem was kissing one of the good girls she started yelling “STOP THE BUS,STOP IT!” After all of that she still decides to stay with Raheem and pretend like she never saw anything.

It was my job to bowdlerize the book so that I could read it to the kindergarteners. I could tell that my neighbor was a fop when his crocodile-skin shoes matched his fedora. The depressed girl wrote an elegy to express her sadness. The teenagers showed deference to the older women by allowing them to get on the bus first.
When they pulled up to the school people were shouting and there were barricades (Bridges.) As Ruby entered the school she was protected by four armed federal marshals and her mom (Ruby Bridges.) Every day angry crowds greeted Ruby (Turner.) Ruby thought it was Mardi Gras when she pulled into the school. People would yell and throw things. People would protest mean things like,holding up signs.
