    1335 Words  | 6 Pages

    The film 13th directed by Ava DuVernay targets an intended audience of the Media and the three branches of the United States government with an emphasis that mass incarceration is an extension of slavery. It is intended to inform viewers about the criminalization of African Americans and the United States prison boom. 13th uses rhetorical devices in its claim to persuade the viewers by using exemplum in the opening seconds of the film. President Barack Obama presents statistics, saying “the United States is home to 5% of the world’s population but is home to 25% of the world’s prisoners.” Also the film uses a hyperbole in talking about the movie Birth of a Nation produced in 1915 which portrays a black man as a violent savage who will kill white women.

When compared to the other films we have seen up to this point, Take Shelter, Soylent Green and Children of Men, The Book of Eli stands out as the first movie we have seen in this class that does not rely on a tyrannical social structure or society to display its post-apocalyptic narrative. All of these films have a society within their dystopian narrative that acts as an antagonist. Take Shelter has a society similar, if not exactly same, to the one we have today while Soylent Green and Children of Men have more tyrannical societies.
