He shares stories of his friends that have achieved many great things and stand up for what’s right. For example, one of his friends grew up in New York with a single mom. She later started a business called “American MoJo”, where she hires single moms looking for a job since “MoJo” means mothers and jobs. ]]> 2020-11-12 21:31:07 UTC https://padlet.com/lbelman2024/x1zlpx2wob0vm700/wish/918569665 lbelman2024 https://padlet.com/lbelman2024/x1zlpx2wob0vm700/wish/918602751 In Wes Moore’s graduation speech he uses an inspiring tone by talking about how even though something may seem hard it is always better to try than never trying. He shows this when he talks about one of his past friends Cara Aley, who chose to stand with single mothers by opening up a business so that the only people who could apply would be single mothers in need of a job. She chose to go open up homer own business so she could help others. She chose to help them in their  bad times. ]]> 2020-11-12 21:43:02 UTC https://padlet.com/lbelman2024/x1zlpx2wob0vm700/wish/918602751 lbelman2024 https://padlet.com/lbelman2024/x1zlpx2wob0vm700/wish/918603633 In Wes Moores graduation speech, he said, “The truth is, the question that will never fade for you is, “Who did you choose to fight for?
Who did you choose to stand up for when it wasn’t easy? Who did you choose to advocate for when it wasn’t convenient? Who did you choose to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with when it might have been just you two standing there, but you did it because it was the right
thing to do?” 
This is the strongest appeal because he asks the audience a question that makes them think about their life. It makes them them think about if they stand up for whats right even if they are the only ones. ]]> 2020-11-12 21:43:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lbelman2024/x1zlpx2wob0vm700/wish/918603633
