Period 1 - Argument Analysis by Patty Alcovendaz https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u Post your best analysis example here. Be sure to include the reason and evidence it supports. en-us 2017-11-07 15:38:54 UTC 2025-09-25 21:42:53 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453277 This means that Jones has gone corrupt with all the power. He is the person in charge and has gone fully corrupt with power. He is making decisions for others that others don’t agree with. Here he is taking the hens eggs away so he can make money. He is literally killing baby chicks for profit. Jones is in so much control that he is making decisions for others that is just constantly causing problems for the animals.

This supports this evidence:
In the novel Animal Farm, by  George Orwell, he describes how the government had so much control that they were able to take the hens eggs preventing them from having any chance at hatching. He writes, “And you hens, how many eggs have you laid in this last year, and how many of those eggs ever hatched into chickens? The rest have all gone to market to bring in money for Jones and his men.”

This supports the reason that rebellion is justifiable when the government has to much control.]]> 2017-11-07 16:47:07 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453277 https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453410 This evidence suggests that the United States continues to have race inequality, and consequently innocent people are being killed because of racism and prejudice. Michael Brown was unarmed and didn’t deserve to die. As a result, a rebellion, led by Black Lives Matter, has validity because a change needs to be made.

And this is an example of that because, the people are told all theses things about the MLK movement are true clarifying it, when really it looks about the same as today’s Black Lives Matter movement. But when someone comes up to the government this people aren’t listened to and the government pushes articles like this aside. This is a reason to rebel because we are repeating ourselves and if this rebel follows through and things change people will started to see it as a good thing.]]> 2017-11-07 16:47:31 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453489 https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453500 In Animal Farm, George Orwell provides a clear visual of an authority having total control over the people when he states, “The buildings wanted roofing, the hedges were neglected, and the animals were underfed. The men had gone rabbiting, without bothering to feed the animals.

This means that Mr. Jones had more power than the animals because he did not bother to feed the animals so they began to rebel. They can do this because they did not get fed for a long time.]]> 2017-11-07 16:47:33 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453500 https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453580 In the article, “Washington Post: These Black Lives Matters protesters planned a march. The police threw them a cookout instead.”, by Colby Itkowitz, he describes an event when Black Lives Matter protesters met with police officers to protest the death of another unarmed black man. He writes, “Fifteen years ago, no one cared if police were killing black people.”

This indicates that the government has total control because no one cared that police officers were killing unarmed black citizens. Rebellion would be justifiable in this case because if a police officer killed unarmed white people, them they would be held accountable for it. This action is the definition of government control because police officers were not being held accountable for their actions, even though they committed murder.

From the day these ideals were put into place, America failed at following through with their promises. The Declaration of Independence claimed that all men were created equal, however when the writers said “all men,” they were actually only referring to wealthy, white men. Women, African-Americans, Native-Americans, and the poor were excluded and were not considered as being equal to the rest. Therefore, the reason for rebellion is lost if the promises of said rebellion are not carried out.]]> 2017-11-07 16:48:00 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453733 https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453856 This quote is explaining that since there was a rebellion, many National Guards and Army rangers were set out to protect the people. This is showing that people were ready to fight and cause violence to show their way of rebellion. These citizens were ready to fight physically for what they thought was sensible for the society. With this protection, they are able to make sure that everyone is safe and not getting hurt. If they were not out there, then there could various injuries to most of the people. With a rebellion, we need this kind of so that a riot could not strike out.]]> 2017-11-07 16:48:12 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204453856 https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204454118 This example shows that the people should rebel when the government has too much control. Then Rosa Park  was forced to leave Montgomery because the  police put her in jail because she stuck up for herself against a white man on a bus. She did not want to move to the back of the bus just because she was black. Therefore, Parks had to rebel because she had the right to rebellion when she has to be forced to moved by a white men, because white people had more right back then.  ]]> 2017-11-07 16:48:36 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204454118 https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204454178 In the poem, “How to Make an Empty Cardboard Box Disappear in 10 Steps,” by  Clint Smith, a poet writer, he writes, “1. Find the scissors/ 2. Cut the sides of the cube/ 3. Attend the rally of Trayvon Martin/ 4. Attend the rally of Renisha McBride/ 5. Attend the rally of Jordan Davis/ 6. Attend the rally of Michael Brown/ 7. Attend the rally of Eric Garner/ 8. Attend the rally of Freddie Gray/ 9.Find another empty box/ 10. Attend the rally of_______________”.
 
This means that you make cardboard signs and attend rallies of black people that have been shot and killed by white people without having been armed. This is a valid reason for rebellion because we are treating races differently just because they have a different skin color. This action is the definition of racism and according the Declaration of Independence, all men shall be created equaled.

The reason many of these people get killed by police brutality is because of inequality between white people and many other races. The citation explains that more people will get killed until the inequality between whites and races that get mistreated is solved, and at this circumstance is when rebellion is needed to stop these inequalities and to stop these killings.]]> 2017-11-07 16:50:00 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204454966 https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204454982 In the Animal Farm, by George Orwell, he wrote, “These scenes of terror and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on that night when old Major first stirred them to rebellion. If she herself had had any picture of the future, it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of Major’s speech”. 
(pg 86)


This indicates that the government control because they took away the life the animals were looking forward to at the beginning of the rally.]]> 2017-11-07 16:50:01 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204454982 https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204455101 This indicates that Kaepernick has refused to stand, kneeled instead, and was refusing to put his hand over his heart for the national anthem because it was his way of protest for racism. Kaepernick is not receiving equality because he’s only kneeling for something he believed in. This shows that rebellion is justifiable because he is currently a free agent with no team since other teams do not want to sign him for what he protested for.]]> 2017-11-07 16:50:14 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204455101 In the A year after shooting, Ferguson inches toward new reality, by Los Angeles Times, adapted by Newsela staff, a very popular newspaper company that wrote about a young black male who was shot and killed by police officer Darren Wilson who never was sentenced for a murder of Michael brown, states, “On August, 9, 2014, Officer Darren Wilson shot Brown after a struggle in the street. It was only the first chapter of a story with no end in sight.” This indicates that it is not equal. It's like any other case. A black man killed by a white police officer who never was sentenced in jail. People can be so prejudiced and violent it's hard to understand. This is very wrong and not right at all. In the declaration it said all men are equal. So to kill another black male especially a young one is so wrong. This very clearly shows that equality is not granted to all races like it's supposed to. It’s true there is no end sight if no one does anything about it and people don’t stop. https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204457350 2017-11-07 16:54:09 UTC https://padlet.com/pbreslin3_2/9v21j2ihh52u/wish/204457350
