    The Seneca orator known as Red Jacket, for the red jacket the British Awarded to him for his services as a message runner during the Revolutionary War and Benjamin Franklin both made very valid point in their speeches. The Indians had a very peaceful way of life. They had their own governing and civility system and they taught their young the way of their ancestors, never taking what “The Great Spirit” (pg 230) gave them for granted. They always welcomed strangers; giving them clothes, shelter and food without ever expecting anything in return. Even when this visitors broke their most basic of common rules like announcing their presence before entering a village. “We took pity on them, granted their request; and they sat down among us.…

    Alexandra Cousteau is a filmmaker that works with National Geographic. She is recognized for being an advocate of water issues and continuing her grandfather’s work. The speech was held at WSRE Jean and Paul Amos Performance Studio and was sponsored by WSRE Public Square Speakers Series. The studio was like a movie theater with seats going all the way up with the Middle Island where the audio in camera was. The stage had a red rectangle in the middle and a podium off to the right with a big screen in the background. The general purpose of the speech was to give her background and also bring up some of the issues that are plaguing our water systems today. The speaker’s specific purpose was to inform but hopefully persuade people to take action.…

    Santiago de Chile is a speech presented from Salvador Allende to Chilean workers in Chile Coup D’état, 1973. The intended audience of the speech was Chileans who suffered in the coup d’état. Throughout the speech, Allende addressed “workers of my country”, “modest women”, and “professionals” to defend the democracy from tyranny. The purpose of the speech is encouraging Chileans to make a sound judgement in fighting against the totalitarianism army force, while defending capitalism to thrive for peace and justice. This is because throughout the speech, Allende uses phrases like “I have faith in Chile and its destiny”, “I will always be next to you”, and “long live Chile! Long live the people! Long live the workers!” as an encouragement for…

Although little girl has some deficiency, I admired her and her courage. There are three main criteria which are used when we evaluated presentations.…

    Arthur Birling is a wealthy, self-made middle class factory owner of the Edwardian era. We first learn about him from the stage directions. Priestley describes him as ‘rather portentous’ suggesting he is serious and self-important. This characterises his attitude throughout the play where his sense of standing in society and the rights this affords him, prevent him from learning the lesson of responsibility that forms the main theme of the play.…

    Overall, this presentation was a fascinating and eye opening experience, as I found Meléndez to be a quite lively and excellent speaker who shared a particularly moving story about injustice, survival, resilience, courage, hope, and faith. His story sheds light on the existing and prevalent issues in United States’ death penalty system, such as its unreliability and unfair treatment of minorities and the poor. Consequently, there is a great need for reform, as the criminal justice system should not be failing citizens. Instead, the system should be effectively and successfully carrying out its duties and responsibilities to citizens.…

    Many believe that children in their infancy are supposed to be concern about their own small problems. They are not supposed to worry about politics or other grown up matters. Venezuelan children are the exception to that belief. I am a Venezuelan who grew up knowing and caring about my country’s politics. I was always aware of all the scandals and new ideas the president was part of. How could I not be? My mother, who worked in Venezuela’s biggest oil industry, was one of the many he fired on live TV. I was only five at the time, but I was very much aware of all the pain and distress he caused in my whole family. Slowly, as I grew up, I started paying more and more attention to the strange character Hugo Chavez was. The way of his speech,…

    The speech about homelessness in the United States was a great one, but there were few things that needs to be improved. He needs to avoid speaking too fast, and the camera should be focused on the speaker alone. While giving a speech, it is very important for the speaker to present his points clearly and concisely. However, this speech can be improved if the presenter takes into consideration the speed of his speech. The speech was very good likewise the structure of his presentation. In addition, the way he presented himself, vocabulary used, and the way he organized his point were fantabulous. However, he ended his speech with a rhetorical question saying “Are we willing to change?” Beyond no reasonable doubt, the question he left was meant for no one to answer, but a change is required in order to counteract this question. Generally speaking, my overall grade for this speech is an A.…
