In these 3 chapters, you will read about the different types of speeches. There are basically three main categories: informative, persuasive, and speaking on special occasions. For our discussion this week, we will look more closely at the various appeals used in persuasive speaking. The three classic appeals are ethos (ethics), pathos (emotions) and logos (logic or credibility). Discuss how you would utilize these appeals and how you would demonstrate your credibility as a speaker. Post your own discussion thread by Thursday night, and reply to the posts of at least 2 of your classmates prior to the end of the forum, Saturday night.

Answer and Explanation:

Topic of discussion chosen: the intensification of economic inequality during the pandemic.

As the ethos is the call to ethics, we could use it in an essay or speech with the topic shown above, showing how some countries have established regulations that forbade people from being more economically harmed than what they were already being. These countries promoted free rents, aid to traders and people who lost their jobs as a way to reduce the increase in income inequality in the country.

Pathos is an appeal to emotion and can be used to show how large companies have positioned themselves in a more exploratory way, with increased prices and layoffs of employees, so that expenses are reduced, while profits are maximized. The dismissed people found themselves without any type of income and experienced many difficulties, which aggravated the economic inequality.

The logos, in turn, is the call to logic and can be used showing that the increase in the number of unemployed during the pandemic causes an increase in world economic inequality.
