How does dr.Martin Luther king jr.’s use of rhetoric support his theme of the need for a transformation of American values
otez555 [7]

Answer:

Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech exhibits an "integrative" rhetorical style that mirrors and maintains King's call for a racially integrated America. Employing the theoretical concepts of voice merging, dynamic spectacle, and the prophetic voice, this essay examines how text and context converge to form a rhetorical moment consonant with the goals of the speech, the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, and the nonviolent direct-action civil rights movement.

Read the following passage: This time, Jacob was in charge of picking teams for baseball at recess. He knew Sara was the best ba
nlexa [21]

Answer:

You have not offered any choices, so therefore, I will elaborate on what you have written.  

Based on the idea that he was picking teams means something in the hierarchy of recess.  I am guessing that he is in about the 5th or 6th grade, and would be embarrassed if he chose a girl first instead of his friends.  At this age and at this stage in his development, having boys on his team is much more important than having a girl.  Would this mean that he likes her?  Does he just want her for her talent of being the best batter?  His relationships with his peers that are boys are much more important to him at this time of his life.  I perceive that when he did pick a couple of boys, they agreed TOGETHER that they should get the best batter.  This way it was in the best efforts of the TEAM and not that a boy was picking a girl.
