Describe the tone of Douglass speech how does his tone contribute to the appeal that he makes using ethos and pathos

English

The tone of the Douglas’ speech “What to a slave is the 4th of July” is one of admonition. Douglas shows that the values the US is built on and which are celebrated on the 4th of July are an offense to and ridicule of the slave population in the United States which did not have neither liberty, freedom or even citizenship in the US.

This tone is effective in using pathos as it shows logically that there is a problem with slavery and that slavery directly goes against the values of the United States.

The admonition tone is also used in ethos as it tugs the heart string of the listener. The use of the Biblical language and imagery also reinforces this effect. He also  uses the patriotism of his listeners as he praises the Founding Fathers and the creation of the nation.

ASHA 777 [7]
Journalist: Hi, I’m a journalist from The New York Times, my name is Anthony. Before I start this interview, I would like you to know that if any questions make you uncomfortable you don’t have to answer them.
Student: okay.
Journalist: So, how did it all begin?
Student: It was Wednesday, and school started like any other day, until the last period during which I was in the library with a few other students. We heard a gunshot in the corridor. We panicked immediately until we regained our teacher and hid under the desk.
We waited for a long 30 minutes before we heard another gunshot, then another, that’s when we realized that the shooter was coming nearer to the library.
Journalist: My god! What next?
Student: We decided to run to the back of the library where it was very dark, we figured he wouldn’t find us there.
Journalist: Smart move! What happened after?
Student: We crawled to the back and felt relatively safe for a while. The window was open and the sun was setting! We had been in school for nearly four hours!
Journalist: Wow.
Student: Only after it got dark the police burst into the library and helped us all to safety.
Journalist: Hopefully there were no casualties, but a teacher was injured.
Student: Yes.
Journalist: Thank you very much.
Student: You’re welcome. Please make it a good article, it could’ve been worse; we need security in our schools.



This isn’t much but I hope it helps! <3 good luck on your assignment!!
