Afghanistan was thrown into a downward spiral of violence, rivalry, civil war and harsh religious rule that finally forced Afghan women out of public life, jobs and education.” Is the calling to action because it calls you to fight for women rights.

    Can women really have it all? According to author Anne-Marie Slaughter, who wrote “Why Women Still Can’t Have It All,” published in 2012 in The Atlantic, believes this way of thinking is an “airbrushed reality” (87). These words of Slaughter are the unfortunate truth for many women working today. Slaughter writes about her decision to leave her high powered job in Washington to spend time at home with her children. It is a looked-down-upon choice by many in the business world, but one she made all the same. After careful examination of her options, she decided that she was indispensable to her children but not to her job. She reaches her audience by using ethos through personal career background. She shares antidotes to pull-in pathos,…

    In the New York Times, “Feminism, Hell and Hilary Clinton”, by Frank Bruni discusses how ridiculous the mentality is that if you are a woman you need to vote for Hilary Clinton. He briefly discusses some statements that were made by some very influential women, Madeline Albright and Gloria Steinem. Bruni seems to almost mock their opinions that “women are more or less damned if they’re not on Hilary Clinton’s team”. Bruni makes it known that he doesn’t disagree with these statements because he doesn’t like Hilary Clinton based on her gender, but more so on her policies. Bruni is able to use some aspects of ethos and logos in this op-ed, and his relaxed tone throughout makes his writing not only easy to read, but easy to agree with; this all…

Group two are intelligent and responsible who desire to control their family size, but are not knowledgeable about how to accomplish it.

    In “The Ways of Meeting Oppression,” Martin Luther King Jr. primarily uses ethos to promote the practice of non-violent resistance against the struggle of oppression. In this persuasive piece, King uses ethos to appeal to the African Americans' sense of responsibility. By encouraging them to step up instead of passively accepting injustice, he is implying that he trusts they can do it. His argument is based on moral obligations rather than the practicality of the issue. His use of shared values or ethos such as “religion reminds every man that he is his brother's keeper,” enables the argument to remain in the realm of abstractness, which in turn remove the human tension. That makes it easier for him to change the attitudes of people, making…

    For this week forum 6; I had selected The Struggle for Human Rights by Eleanor Roosevelt, and the purpose for this article or speech is to try to persuade the Member States of the United Nations in the General Assembly to adopt the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), and due to the introduction to the Rogerian method of argumentation that can be useful for solving issues which do not have clear right or wrong sides. This method shows an openness and respect to the other side, shows a lack of bias towards this other side, but still attempts to persuade this other side to believe a specific, albeit less absolute, claim. She develops the central claim using these supporting claims: “this…

    Well-known Sci-fi writer, Ray Bradbury, in his novel, Fahrenheit 451, illustrates that relationships reflect who individuals are and who they want to be.

    When women got the right to vote in 1919, women made a huge step toward equality but they still had a long way to go. But women continued making these steps toward equality for the remainder of the 20th century. 20 years after earning the vote, World War 2 occurred. Women took over almost of the workforce, and proved that they were an important part of society. Then later in the 1970s, the birth control pill was invented; women were now able to focus particularly on their career and having babies later. Two causes of the women's rights movement from 1940-1975 were influence of other rights movements and the need to achieve labor equality.…

    Women in In Custody are presented as oppressed by the males, thus they are in this sense, a parallel to the colonized because both women and the colonized experience oppression and struggle with breaking free from the control of men and colonizers respectively. They are bound by the identity that their oppressors impose on them, one that is generalised and that entraps them. However, Desai also develops the women in In Custody as characters who assert control over the males in the novel in such a way that they are the ones who emerge as the wielders of power instead of the males. Though women are peripheral in the novel, they are able to subtly demonstrate their authority over men and the immense strength of their character.…

    The role of women changes drastically throughout the book. The years 1972 through 1991 was when it was “a good time to be a woman in Afghanistan” (135). Most men, Rasheed not included, “did not mind that their wives walked among strangers with makeup on and nothing on their head” (125). Khala Rangmaal, Laila’s teacher, said “women and men are equal in every way and there was no reason women should cover if men didn't” (111).but in 1992, all that changed. “Strict Islamic laws ordered women to cover, forbade travel without a male relative” (260). The complete opposite of what it originally was. And in 1996, the Taliban made many rules. Women must stay at home at all times, they were not to show their faces at any time, cosmetics, jewelry, and even laughing was forbidden. And absolutely no school. Eventually, in 2003, everything became alright for women again.…
