The Seneca orator known as Red Jacket, for the red jacket the British Awarded to him for his services as a message runner during the Revolutionary War and Benjamin Franklin both made very valid point in their speeches. The Indians had a very peaceful way of life. They had their own governing and civility system and they taught their young the way of their ancestors, never taking what “The Great Spirit” (pg 230) gave them for granted. They always welcomed strangers; giving them clothes, shelter and food without ever expecting anything in return. Even when this visitors broke their most basic of common rules like announcing their presence before entering a village. “We took pity on them, granted their request; and they sat down among us.…

The Presidential Election of 1986 between the Republican William McKinley and Democrat William Jennings Bryan, is thought to be one of the most impressive and complicated presidential elections in all of American History. One of the major highlights of the election was William Jennings Bryan’s “Cross of Gold” speech that sparked the people’s interest for the Democratic representative. This speech not only had a firm and well defined meaning, but its delivery was also delivered superbly. The speech itself was concerned with many problems, such as growing class divisions that later were the cause of many violent outbursts among the people. Money was the most prominent concern for the people in 1896 because of high employment rates and the fact that they were recovering from a few years of depression. The…
Debra Wuichet is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from University of Tennessee. She is the Director of Social Services at North Mississippi State Hospital and has been working there for sixteen years. Her topic of the presentation was mental illnesses and schizophrenia. I really enjoyed her speech because I had little previous knowledge of mental illness. Even though I have taken a few classes that discussed the illnesses, I can understand better with stories or a way to imagine a situation and Debra provided that. Information that I thought I knew, was stuff I had assumed from watching television shows and movies. Most of that information is inaccurate.…

Although little girl has some deficiency, I admired her and her courage. There are three main criteria which are used when we evaluated presentations.…
Imagine yourself waking up every morning and realizing that you have to literally avoid death from the moment you wake up till the time you are supposedly safe at home. Imagine that you’re told by many people, who you love, that you’re a sin and that you will burn in hell. Imagine that everyday the people you thought cared for you turn you away and threaten you if you don't change, for some people that is something they can never even begin to understand, but now imagine it happening to someone for their entire life. Laverne Cox, a transgender woman and actress, gives a powerful speech during ‘Creating Change 2014’ (an organization that brings awareness to the LGBT community) she talks about the violent injustices and police discrimination against the lives of transgender women of color as a way to spread awareness of the inequalities of transgender within the LGBT community to those who feel the T in LGBT isn't as important. Throughout her speech she appeals to the viewer's empathy to those in pain through personal anecdotes and asyndeton sentences.…
Analyzing the transcript, there is no doubt in saying that Ms O'Hearn felt the need to present the speech on sleep to show how much of an affect a single nights "bad sleep" have on a student's year. Therefore, O'Hearn, uses inclusive language in her speech to show she's credible, truthful as well as reliable. The use of "you" in " you can make your VCE year a successful one" adds more credence to her argument, as well as, position the reader to share the same ideas as her, moreover invokes our desire to be not 'left out' or regarded as an outcast. In addition, to support inclusive language, O'Hearn cleverly introduces emotive language such as "drastically slowing down our metabolism" to put even more emphasis on the importance of a good-nights…

If you had the choice, would you choose to sleep or go to school? Wouldn’t you want school to start later so you could get your nine hours? Well, it’s not as ideal as it seems. For the past few years, the Littleton Public Schools district, along with other school districts around the country, discussed the idea of the change of school start and end times. For the most part of this school year, the district has started to ask parents and students for their opinions and to come up with different solutions that will appeal to everyone. One of the biggest reasons that the district would need to change the times befalls the lack of sleep that students receive. Pamela McKeever, the leader of a study of adolescent sleep said that, "...research explains…
Distinctive voices are expressed through individuals and make vibrant by understanding their situations. Individuals in this contextual understanding represents the minority and through distinctive voices it allows the responders to develop an understanding of their struggles. This is shown, in Ray Lawler’s 1950s play Summer of the Seventeenth Doll and Omar Musa’s spoken poetry Capital Letters, where they express the notion of change and ageing. With consideration to both composers context, Lawler's 1950s Carlton Melbourne and Musa’s 1990’s Queanbeyan, the realist setting aids to the further understanding of distinctive voices.…
Frank’s response to “Overloaded and Underprepared” in “Today’s Exhausted Superkids” says the biggest sadness to him was the lack of sleep kids get. He says kids today are hyped up and stressed out so they are not getting the rest they need. Frank Bruni states that when he was in high school, it was a problem for teens to get too much sleep and not waking up in time for class.
