Anthony uses logos to persuade the men as they will only listen to reason not emotional comments. "For any state to make sex a qualification that must ever result in the disfranchisement of one entire half of the people, is to pass a bill of attainder, or, an ex post facto law, and is therefore a violation of the supreme law of the land." This greatly explains her point that women should have the same right as the men and that sex should not be something that determines anything. Chief Joseph uses pathos to explain his emotional distress to the reader who then should feel remorse. "I am tired of fighting, Looking Glass is dead. too-Hul-hul-sote is dead. The old men are all dead" The war that Chief Joseph is in has put a great strain on him which he is trying to explain by saying it this in this

In 2 very different images created by the Southern Poverty Law Center, or the SPLC, the organization employs Pathos, Logos, and Ethos in an attempt to persuade the audience that their organization is one fighting for good, and that American government is flawed. Meaning that it isn’t conducive to an environment for equality encourages hatred, not adequately supporting civil rights, and teaching intolerance between races, and ethnicities. In these images, Ethos has a great impact on the impression the audience will form toward SPLC, as well as the mission, and goals of the organization. To start of, the Image 1 severely lacks credibility.

The assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. devastated a large majority of people around the world. His works of nonviolent acts against racism motivated many, including civil rights activist Cesar Chavez, to solve matters without resorting to inhumane behaviors. Inspired by Dr. King Jr.’s work, Chavez and his union of labor workers devoted themselves to helping those in need through peaceful protests. Similar methods are proven to be successful; Mahatma Gandhi, for instance, gained a great deal of supporters because of his pacifism and tranquil methods of boycotting against British domination. Despite brutal and savage methods of persuasion slowly gaining support, Chavez proves that nonviolent actions are superior; he does so by using ethos in order to uphold moral standards, logos (in reference to the past), and pathos to appeal to the emotions of his audience.

the least ineffective rhetorical appeal is "logos"although there may be some logic in saying hi to a person when you see them most people do not say hello back to you. When i was younger i said hello to everyone i meet but there were always people that did not respond back. The reason why they did not respond back is because they didn't care or were not feeling to well to say hi. Most people say hi to send back the generosity of someone greeting them, others don't and just leave and smash your generosity on the ground. pathos is the main rhetorical appeal therefor other people use "hello" in everyday conversations.

For example Anthony says, “but this oligarchy of sex, which makes father, brothers, husband, sons, the oligarchs over the mother and sisters, the wife and daughters, of every household” This is very sad since women and girls should not be ruled or told what to do because they are thought of to be less than man. The constitution is in place to have a unified country not to have an oligarchy of men lead households. The pathos appeal is used to show what suffering women are going through due to men ruling them, and not knowing how to fight back. Susan B. Anthony in her speech also says, “Are women persons?.....and no state has the right to make a law, or to enforce an old law, that shall abridge their privileges and immunities.”, which also connects with the emotions of the audience. She is trying to make people feel bad that women are treated less even though they are just as righteous as men to have the same privileges.
