Italics used throughout piece for emphasis.
| Author’s style and voice  | Honest, candid and direct tones employed throughout piece. “It’s a complete load of shit, you know?” Khalid openly expresses his truth – conveying a sense of outrage, scandal, affront, atrocity.
 | Language  | War imagery “enfilade fire” and “both ends of this trench” seeks to emulate feelings of hardship, battle, us versus them Khalid uses humour to express the love he holds for his mum “dispenses forgiveness like an eleventh-century Catholic bishop.” Khalid uses Qantas to convey how the system shapes individuals’ futures, a system that ultimately favors white, straight males. He shines a light on how many young African-Australian men end up in “jail”, “caught in black holes of troubles” and “lost.” Elicits empathy, sadness and hopelessness. 
 | Punctuation  | Uses ( ) parentheses to insert additional information - creates a feeling within the reader that you’re being let in on a secret, he trusts you and wants you to know the full story. - Dashes used throughout the piece, to extend sentences and provide additional information. ]]> 2020-02-04 03:02:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ellelongmuir/11eng2020/wish/440058864 ellelongmuir https://padlet.com/ellelongmuir/11eng2020/wish/441255631 2020-02-05 22:12:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ellelongmuir/11eng2020/wish/441255631 Struggling to find your voice KDC2020 https://padlet.com/ellelongmuir/11eng2020/wish/442799122 Miss Young has collated a range of articles to give you more background on the context the original authors are writing from ]]> 2020-02-10 00:40:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ellelongmuir/11eng2020/wish/442799122 Template for W.
