Speech to the Second Virginia Convention As we listen to Henry’s speech, keep track of the different types of appeals he uses (ethos, logos, or pathos).

Speech to the Second Virginia Convention Choose two of the following three questions to answer: Do you think Henry was being accurate when he says, “For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery”? Find one allusion Henry makes in his speech. What effect does the allusion have on his speech? In other words, why do you think he included it? “I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided; and that is the lamp of experience.” Is this an example of ethos, pathos, or logos? Explain.

“Give me Liberty” by Havoc 5. What types of rhetorical appeals does Havoc use throughout its video? Give at least two specific examples (which don’t have to be quotes). 6.
