“The Clan “, was a generation of cancer victims starting from 1951 when they tested the first nuclear bomb. I think that the government didn’t take it into go consideration on whether the testing was actually a probable cause of cancer or not. Due to the fact that they didn’t not allow many cases to even make it to court do to humiliation and possible being the cause of the some of the United States deaths. After the bombing people were getting fatal illnesses such as Leukemia and pancreatic cancer. Some cases for example Irene Allen vs. United Stated was a possible cause of cancer. Or the base of this passage where Terry Williams was in the clan because cancer was passed down from generation to generation in her family. Williams’s father described the day of the testing and explained the mushroom cloud and how it changed the face of the world in a matter of seconds. Cancer has killed over 7.6 million people from children to …show more content…
In which was all giving fact but yet was still not proven. The case when this lady lost her husband after he watched the bombing from a local high school near the nuclear bombing. A year later he died From Leukemia and left her Widowed. Where she got married again to a man that was working on a building near the bombing sit and he died of bone cancer some years later. The emotion came because just like the people and their cases Williams also lost loved one and didn’t get any justification on how and why but she had to deal with it. In conclusion the clan of one-breasted one introduced me to different ways that cancer came about; Radiation, and nuclear activities. The Clan was a generation of mastectomies diagnosed woman that was passed down from generation to generation. From the 1951 bombing in Utah. Cases ignored families left with un-answers questions and no cure. Just like Williams Family cancer was passed down but not only that only retrieved 14years after some of the nuclear testing. Which still leaves an un-answered question, but still a fight. Cancer is a Very serious matter and a nationwide outreach. Known as Breast cancer month but it’s also Cancer awareness month. So one day all the praying, questions, and donation will pay off and cancer will be no
This demonstrates how it was mentally scarring for their people to experience. Students were at loss since they were too young to understand what to do in a case like this.

The Vietnam War was between North and South Vietnam, and their allies like America. The Americans goal was to prevent communist insurgency. Eventually “…Henry Kissinger and Nixon made a policy called ‘Vietnamization’” (History.com).

In this excerpt from Daniel Webster’s address to the loss during the Battle at Bunker Hill, he talks about very emotional and joyful issues. Because of this he alters his tone to sound loving towards his fellow people by appealing to ethos and logos and giving them a sense of hope. He uses specific word choice and vocabulary to keep the piece sounding sophisticated and appropriate for the situation. From the beginning of the excerpt to the end he continues to use a very complex and elaborate sentence structure that also adds to the sophistication of his speech.
The residents of Hiroshima, Japan began their day routinely on August 6, 1945. Some commuted to work or school, some sat down to read a newspaper, and some tended to the needs of their children. At exactly fifteen minutes past eight in the morning, all aspects of life as known to the city’s population of two hundred and forty five thousand people were decimated within an instant; it was an instant in which the first atomic bomb was dropped from an American plane, killing nearly one hundred thousand people and injuring another one hundred thousand more. In its original edition, John Hersey’s Hiroshima traces the lives of six survivors, beginning a few minutes prior to the bombing and covering the period directly thereafter. When the bomb detonates, the Reverend Mr. Kiyoshi Tanimoto, a community leader and an American-educated Methodist pastor, throws himself between two large rocks and is hit with debris from a nearby house.
This allows the audience to know that she can relate to the situation. Most everyone texts and it can be easy to allow such language to bleed over into any type of formal writing. She, however, believes that people have enough common sense and control and that most people don't allow themselves to use such language in their final drafts of their formal writings. Despite establishing her credibility and strong use of logos, she does, however, lack in pathos. She fails at truly connecting with the reader on a more personal and emotional level.
Kathryn Stockett successfully uses rhetorical devices to get the reader to feel and understand the perspectives of the protagonists. Stockett uses pathos, ethos, and logos in her book, since the book about social injustice. The topics in the book range from inequality of the sexes to social classes and racism, Stockett is successful in getting the reader to reflect while reading the book and the themes of the book have a clear presence. We see Stockett use ethos and pathos in the very first chapters when we learn that Hilly doesn't like Minny and Minny doesn't want to say why at first, but the incident with Ms. Holbrook was affecting her chances of getting a job because of the influence Hilly has over this suburban society. In some instances where Stockett uses ethos, pathos is also included in her writing.
Night and Fog is a documentary that alternates between past and present and features both black- and-white and color footage. The film draws on several sources, including black-and-white still images from various archives, excerpts from older black-and-white films from French, Soviet, and Polish newsreels, footage shot by detainees of the Westerbork internment camp in the Netherlands, or by the Allies' "clean-up" operations, plus new color and black-and-white footage filmed at concentration camps in 1955. Resnais filmed his color sequences in Eastmancolor rather than Agfacolor, using the footage to contrast the desolate tranquility of several concentration camps—Auschwitz, Birkenau, Majdanek, Struthof, and Mathausen—with the horrific events that occurred there

Trust, experiences, and helping each other, are all ways that people can generate hope and gain knowledge from the past. The novel “Hiroshima” shows us that when people come together, then they are stronger, and we can learn from survivors like Miss Sasaki.

For example, in “Hiroshima”, the first responders and doctors helped Miss Sasaki get out from underneath the building. “Much later, several men came and dragged Miss Sasaki out.”

Terry Tempest Williams wrote a strong and passionate essay, The Clan of One-Breasted Women, about her experience with finding out about nuclear testing in addition, what she believes was the cause of breast cancer that most of the women in her family were suffering from.

She also makes a strong argument through the use of ethos, pathos, and logos.
After reading Mother Tongue by Amy Tan, my perspective changed about the struggles for people who are not as good at English. All throughout this article Tan uses personal experience from her mom to show the readers the struggle while also using primary sources to back up her claim.

All throughout the reading she uses many personal stories and personal experiences on how difficult it was for her mother to go through her everyday life.
