Write a rhetorical analysis of ONE of the following essays:
“What’s the Difference between a Frat and a Gang?” by Ibram X. Kendi (published March 20, 2018, in The Atlantic).
Write an essay of 800 words. Stay within 25 words of this count. Headings, title, and Works Cited page are not included in the word count.

Succinctly state the meaning or message of the source essay. Draw upon reading on summary.
Isolate the strategies that the author uses to persuade the reader to accept this message. Identify which of the classical forms of appeal–logos, pathos, ethos, and kairos–are employed. Refer to class readings on rhetorical analysis.
Decide which of the appeals are most prominent and most effective and explain why.
Consider whether the argument contains any logical fallacies. Refer to readings on logical fallacies.
Tie your observations to specific passages in the text and document them with signal phrases, in-text citations, and a Works Cited page.
