Determine the type of rhetorical strategy used and explain how you know. “Kimberly N. had a senior position at a charitable organization when her son was born. She planned for a six-week maternity leave, but her son was born with a life-threatening condition, and she ended up taking 12 weeks with partial pay. Kimberly’s supervisor was unhappy that she took such a long leave and refused to let her work part-time or from home. After going back to work, Kimberly had a terrible performance evaluation that contrasted sharply with her previous positive evaluations. She soon left her job, which significantly impacted family finances.”

Rhetoric

Women’s Suffrage(started in 1848)

What is it? it’s the right of women to vote in elections. In 1848, the Seneca Falls Convention, there was the first women’s rights conventions. In the 1870s, women attempted to vote and filed lawsuits in hopes that the Supreme Court would hear their case.

So… then what happened? One of the leaders of the movement, Susan B. Anthony, was able to vote in an election, but she was caught, arrested and found guilty. This happened in 1872 but it was nearly 50 years before women finally got the right to vote!

Elizabeth Chapman Catt She was an American women's suffrage leader who campaigned for the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which gave U.S. women the right to vote in 1920.Catt served as president of the National American Woman Suffrage Association and was the founder of the League of Women Voters and the International Alliance of Women. She "led an army of voteless women in 1919 to pressure Congress to pass the constitutional amendment giving them the right to vote and convinced state legislatures to ratify it in 1920" and "was one of the best-known women in the United States in the first half of the twentieth century and was on all lists of famous American women".
