No Compromise With The Evil Of Slavery Rhetorical Analysis
"NO COMPROMISE WITH THE EVIL OF SLAVERY" I believe the parts of the speech I didn 't cut out illustrate the speech 's thesis, by words he uses. For instance, how he contrasts the difference between God being freedom and slavery being of the devil. He makes a point that slavery is wrong under any circumstances. I mainly picked out the aggressive parts that I believed were true and right. As stated in the speech, "that all men are created equal", is justifiable. My decision making strategies on my delivery would be on how I want to show my affection toward what I am presenting. I want to be strong, and show that slavery is wrong no matter what. I want to show emphasis on what needs to be, and to also keep my peers awake and interested. An
example, "every slave is a stolen man; every slaveholder is a man stealer. By no precedent, no example, no law, no compact, no purchase, no bequest, no inheritance, no combination of circumstances, is slaveholding right or justifiable". I amplified my volume to show that there are no circumstances in which slaveholding is right or justifiable. In the last part of the speech, I lower my rate to show how I feel about slavery and I also pause to set the pitch for the next part that I 'm going to speak. I think the speech is very well composed by the way he worded it and how it was so organized. For example he says, "I am mad, and can no longer discriminate between a man and a beast." A man is a human being and a beast is not, which hints to his declaration that humans posses passion, instincts, and power. As a beast just wants to kill or in slave terms sold, deemed, reputed and adjudged in law to be chattels personal in the hands of their owners. I like what he says at the end of his speech, "What then is to be done? Friends of the slave, the question is not whether by our efforts we can abolish slavery, speedily or remotely for duty is ours, the result is with God; but whether we will go with the multitude to do evil, sell our birthright for a mess of pottage, cease to cry aloud and spare not, and remain in Babylon when the command of God is 'Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. ' Let us stand in our lot, 'and having done all, to stand. ' At least, a remnant shall be saved. Living or dying, defeated or victorious, be it ours to exclaim, 'No compromise with slavery! Liberty for each, for all, forever! Man above all institutions! The supremacy of God over the whole earth! ' As he spoke of 'HER ' in sense of the statue of liberty. This goes back to the beginning that she represents life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Which entails that if you follow God then you choose not of slavery which is death and cruelty to man."
