Re: August Blog # 4

What I see on this blog is very simple and complicated but Fannie Lou Hamer has the intelligence to suceed in her junior year as well as in her future. I am very proud to see that she can do anything in life and that there is no words "I can't do it". Any college will be glad to have chosen her to be a part of their Alumni. Fannie Lou Hamer will have a great Junior year in High School because she's outgoing, and smart. All of her peers will look up to her now as well and most important in her Senior year. Fannie Lou Hamer needs to start believing in herself again so that she really knows that she has been doing it right and see her fruits of labor for the past 2 years of high school are not in vain. To take every curve that was thrown at her, any situation, any friends that she thought were her friends was for a reason. Mom is proud of her and her accomplishments.

Andrew Sullivan's blog is about the controversy that has been surrounding the South African championship runner, Caster Semenya, since she won the women's 800 meter. The purpose of his blog is to express that it doesn't matter if she is a man, the race is based on strength, intelligence, and social grace. The speaker of course, is Andrew Sullivan, and he does have ethos, the appeal of credibility, because he is one of the most famous bloggers in the United States and many take his opinion serious. The audience of this blog are college or educated individuals. What I like about Andrew Sullivan's blog is that he talks about subjects that are considered controversial and that he's not afraid to put his own opinions out there despite what others think.
