One appeal that Prose makes to logos is when she discusses how unlikely it is that a student exposed to only middlebrow writing will strive to read anything more or write anything better than mediocre (para 17). Here, Prose is trying to express why high school literature should be more decisively picked. If high schools lazily pick weak literature for students to learn from, then it logically follows that students will learn to read and write like that. Another appeal that Prose makes to logos is when she describes the inadequacy of Angelou’s I know Why the Caged Bird Sings saying, “To hold up this book as a paradigm of memoir, of thought--of literature--is akin to inviting doctors convicted of malpractice to instruct our medical students”

The term Rhetoric can be defined as “the faculty of observing in any given case the available means of persuasion.” In order to use rhetoric devices correctly you need; ethos, pathos, and logos. Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and it is a means of convincing someone of the character or credibility of the persuader.

Throughout Baldwin’s essay, he encourages changes in education for blacks, but he does so using ethos and pathos. For example, he starts off by notifying teachers that they will meet the most determined resistance from society, as he has in his writings. This shows his credibility by informing the teachers that they do not struggle alone in this issue. The use of ethos leads him to the use of pathos by providing an example of an African American child growing up, drawing conclusions about the world, but not having an explanation for it. This really makes the audience contemplate about their childhoods.

Ethos, Logos, Pathos “Just like grownups, kids need different kinds of incentives to get through the day, some highbrow and some low, some short-term, some longer-term”-Roland Fryer, economics teacher at Harvard.

The address claim that America, which our founding fathers united, is sustaining many issues that have been affecting the stability of this nation.

While the music is very important to setting the tone of the video, the actors and the dogs played a very important role also. You saw both the boy and dog grow up and mature. The director used pathos to bring out the emotions of the viewers.
