The speeches we are going to analyze are PERSUASIVE  which means the speaker is trying to convince the listener of something.
It is AN ARGUMENT that has a CALL to ACTION.

The three appeals - LOGOS, PATHOS and ETHOS are are used for PERSUASION (not informational, not for entertainment). They are SPECIFICALLY used to persuade. 

Listen to and then read the Chief Joseph Speech and circle all of the words that are repeated over and over (used for emphasis). Also note any emotional appeals (feel sympathy for)  and/or logical appeals (facts).
