    Ann Richards presented her Keynote Address to the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in 1988. Descriptive analysis aims to understand the purpose of a work, and the methods used to achieve that purpose. There are six elements, not including purpose, that can be strategically used to achieve a goal: persona, audience, tone, structure, supporting materials, and other strategies (Campbell and Burkholder 21). This rhetorical analysis examines how Ann Richards uses persona during her Keynote Address to the 1988 Democratic National Convention to convince listeners that the current government is dividing the country and that equality for all is important.…

    Election Day 1920, millions of American women used their right to vote for the very first time. For almost 100 years many women fought to win that right. They have made speeches, signed petitions, and argued over and over again that women, like men, deserve all the rights and responsibilities that men have. For example Sojourner Truth’s Speech to the Ohio Women’s Conference. Sojourner Truth rose and delivered her short powerful speech citing beliefs of Christianity and using her strong, impressive presence to disprove the minister’s arguments.…

    David Foster Wallace Reflection Many commencement speeches are inspiring and speak to all of the graduating students that are stepping into the workforce. David Foster Wallace’s speech focused on the life ahead of the students, who will be day in and day out in days filled with boredom, harsh frustrations and the same routine of daily life. When I first read the quote, it showed a story behind the commencement speech. The quote speaks to the autopilot lives that we are living, where we are unknowingly tangled in a rat race that keep us from paying attention to what is most meaningful in our everyday lives.…

Abu-Jamal delivered a pre-recorded commencement speech that made headlines. “An outcry of criticism from victims, law enforcement, and even the state legislature— not for its content, but for no other reason than Abu-Jamal’s words had been provided for public consumption” (Zoukis, 2015). ‘On October 16, 2014, less than two weeks after Abu-Jamal delivered the commencement speech, the Pennsylvania legislature passed the Revictimization Act, also known as the ‘Silencing Act.’…

    Jane Elliott was, by far, the most controversial speaker that I have heard at Texas A&M University-Commerce. On October 4th at the Sam Rayburn Student Center, she fiercely discussed the racism that is woven throughout our American culture, and she started by mentioning that children in America are taught to be racist from the day they are born. She used strong, and sometimes inappropriate language, which bothered me initially, because it can imply lack of professionalism. As her speech continued, I realized that her use of strong language was only helping her more efficiently convey her thoughts. One of her main topics was the importance of voting, and she emphatically endorsed Hillary Clinton for the 2016 presidential race.…
