In her "Speech After Being Convicted of Voting," Susan B. Anthony argues that though she voted in a presidential election during

a period when American women were not allowed to vote, she "not only committed no crime, but instead, simply exercised [her] citizen's rights." Does Anthony succeed in proving this point? Why or why not? Be sure to use specific details from the text to support your claim

Although Anthony was charged guilty, her recognized speech had an effectiveness in persuading her audience members. She had created her works based on objective beliefs of her fellow feminists. She presented her points with facts and less emotional attachments other speeches were known for. An example is how she used the Fourteenth Amendment as a basis for argument. Another is her questioning the true meaning of the Constitution's consent for citizens to create governance input. Both men and women understood her points then accepted them with little criticism. Her evident passion to reach out unto small numbers also made the speech effective.

Susan B. Anthony argues that, although legally not allowed to vote, she is entitled to participate in the country's running because of her condition of citizen. She is successful in arguing this point, as she provides strong evidence for her position. For example, she describes how the Constitution makes all people equal, and does not distinguish between men and women. She also describes how women display all the conditions of "humanity" one could expect, and therefore, do not deserve to be treated like inferior beings by the law.

<span>When constructing an argument, one thing writers do is concede a point.  This technique demonstrates to readers that the author considered both sides of the argument and that the argument being presented is not entirely one sided.  Thus, what the author is doing here is conceding the point that tablets can be cost prohibitive.  However, when conceding a point, it is best to immediately follow it up with a rebuttal.  In this particular instance, what the author should do is include information on cost and perhaps try to undermine the point being conceded by mentioning the cost of text books, which can, too, be quite pricey and cannot be updated as easily as information on a tablet. </span>

tankabanditka [31]

The detail that provides the most cultural context from the excerpt about the Cold War is the following: <em>There was also a sense of urgency. The Pentagon was worried that the shattered remains of the Soviet Union might be rebuilt before the United States. </em>That phrase gives the most cultural context reference about the Cold War as there was a constant tension between both powers. There were plenty of different possible scenarios in which either of them would win over the other one, including a possible nuclear war. The sensation of uncertainty was reigning through the Cold War era.

This excerpt belongs to the book called "Visions: how Science will revolutionize the 21st Century" written by American theoretical physicist Michio Kaku and first published in 1997.
