blog it by identifying the types of arguments used and their effectiveness, and plan a short group presentation of the editorial to the rest of the class.
The story i read was about a guy from Sudan. He gives insight to his own personal life about how what is hapening in Sudan affects him here in America. The author talks about the power of association in how people would associate the knews that they heard about Sudan to him, because he was teh only Sudanese guy they knew. Becase he was born here and it was his father who immigrated here during the 1970s, he feels "ashamed" sometimes of his heritage. When radical events occur in Sudan all he wants to do is disappear because the connection peple draw from him to Sudan is all to unpleasant. The type of argument he uses is informal pathos. He comes accross as a regular guy dealing with a probem and makes one feel empathetic to his case.
