Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we talked about, crises rhetoric. In crisis rhetoric there’s urgency, crisis as reality, dramatic characters, policy as morality, and rhetorically generative. We listened to Donald Trump’s speech about immigration crisis. We broke down the different components like, dramatic characters. In dramatic characters there’s “good vs bad” it depends on how you look at it on who’s good and bad. To most Americans the bad were the immigrants and the good were us. I kind of got the lesson I have to do the homework to really break it down.
Today in Mr.Rease’s 4th period American Literature class we learned about informal and formal texts. In class he gave us a passage with no context, we just read it. After we read it we all realized that there wasn’t really any theme or moral of the story. He then gave us a topic, which half of the class had already figured out midway through the passage. That was interesting to me because I didn’t get it until the prompt, which says a lot about myself. It was pretty fun breaking down the passage with the 2 different prompts. I’m glad I had a little nice time in 4th period today.
