How effective is the writing? en-us 2016-12-16 13:34:48 UTC 2016-12-16 17:45:01 UTC hello@padlet.com jvalentine7 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046504 Wesley Lowery wrote this article well, with all the descriptive literary terms he used, but it could have been better. Wesley Lowery had personal stories put into his text, but what the personal stories didn't have where the descriptive part to them, the story was just told then he ( the Author ) moved on without explaining the impact on the historical event ( you had to figure it out on your own ). The article, on the other hand, did have very powerful and descriptive words like, "death" and "abandoned" going toward the tone of the text. Wesley Lowery, also used flashback, because it was an event that had happened in the past, but a flashback could be a powerful thing and he didn't take advantage of the very important event that changed the way people now think.]]> 2016-12-16 14:00:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046504 acrandall https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046535 Westley Lowery is very effective in his writing. He uses sensory detail to picture the place of which Emmett Till was torched and died. Lowery also uses bold words to lure you in such as "feared " and "tortured".]]> 2016-12-16 14:00:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046535 summerlovingirl587 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046554
Westley Lowery is effective into his writing. He uses powerful, strong, meaning full sensory details to represent the feelings of the people in the town.]]> 2016-12-16 14:00:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046554 mwalmsley https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046583 The effective writer, Westley Lowery, uses strong, persuading words to tell the powerful story of Emmet Till. He uses words like "death," "murder," and "tortured." These words set the tone for the story to be sad, gloomy, and dark. Lowery also uses a comparison of the store. To how it was back than to how it looks now. He tells how the store should be a memorial site for everyone to remember this time. Westley uses flashback to tell the details of Emmet Till and how everyone reacted to this hard time. These details paint a picture for the readers minds to better understand Emmet Till and the effects he had on our history.]]> 2016-12-16 14:01:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046583 okohl https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046587 Lowery explains his meaning very well. For the people that don't know the story about Emmett Till, he gives a brief summary of the events that occurred surrounding him. He then explains how we should be keeping these places, that important pieces of history took place in, clean and restored. Also, by using the tone and diction he did, we, the readers, can connect and be brought into the story more easily. By doing this Lowery is getting is idea across more clearly than if he did not write this way.]]> 2016-12-16 14:01:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046587 hmoore11 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046635 The tone of the article the Westley Lowery wrote was very informational but not very informational at the same time. He would say something as a flashback and then go into a complete different topic about something else without explaining why that happened or why something was said. But he did a very good job explaining the events that happened through the Emmet Till's case. He does a very good job at showing and telling pathos on hid death. When he talks about the death of Emmet Till, it makes me mad and upset that it happened the way it did and nothing happened to they guys that did that to Emmet. He also uses the words like tragic, death, endless fear and many words to explain his death and the heart broke of his family and friends.]]> 2016-12-16 14:01:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046635 pbarrows1 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046637 It is well done because of the word usage like death, unrest, and tragic. Lowery also uses real facts about it so you understand it better, along with those facts he also uses pictures to help you visualize the event and further your understanding.]]> 2016-12-16 14:01:14 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046637 mshuboy https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046639 Weastly Lowery's article is written very efficiently and conveys the meaning of the article very nicely . He gives many examples to help us understand the point and draw us in . The article shows pictures and flash back so we can better see and understand .  The article is also sad which is very effective . It is clear the article was well thought out and is meant to appeal to the readers emotions. ]]> 2016-12-16 14:01:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046639 amarshall25 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046683 Westley lowery wrote this article well, but he didn't get into the details of the story. This was an important story in history, he wrote this article in a well manner and tone to what the story is. Also the facts that he put in to the story of Emmett Till was well said but really didn't get into to help other understand. This was personal stories to be told  and very hard if you weren't there so the manner and the choose of word that Westley lowery was well said.]]> 2016-12-16 14:01:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046683 ashuttleworth1 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046684 Westley Lowery is very effective with his writing. Westley uses sensory detail that paints a picture in the readers mind. In the beginning of the article it says, "a swath of poor agricultural towns separated by endless stretches of corn and cotton." That paints a picture of the setting. The author also uses good word choice. He uses words such as torture, fear, bitter, horror, death, and decaying.]]> 2016-12-16 14:01:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046684 akowalski4 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046824 the author Westley Lowery of the article, is well done because it has personal stories. It also has a lot of data and facts to back up his claim! I think he did a good job on the article about Emmett Tills death. Westley used describing words to make it more clear to the reader what he knows and thinks about Emmett's death. Not only describing words but, also tone.]]> 2016-12-16 14:02:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046824 cbieszke https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046844 Wesley Lowery's writing strategy good because of how he breaks up the information, and the how he states key facts about emit till, and the town money. Wesley Lowery uses pathos in this article too make you sad about what happened too emit. Lowery shows us of all the racism that took place in Mississippi in the 1955. "In 1955, it was the site of 14-year-old Emmett Till’s fatal crime — whistling at a white woman."]]> 2016-12-16 14:02:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046844 tskatzka https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046850 Wesley Lowery effectively uses his strategy writing by using details that draw readers in, informing us on how real and tragic this event was. For example he uses the pathos persuasion to emotionally connect the reader to the writing and what the story is about. Dragging out the horrific details so the readers know and get attached to Emmett Till and how he was murdered.]]> 2016-12-16 14:02:10 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046850 ccates4 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046879 Westley Lowery use pathos to tug at people heart strings.
To make people feel how people involved  with Emmet Till feel. Other reasons why Lowery writing strategy is good because he use flashback from going back to the case.  ]]> 2016-12-16 14:02:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046879 mbean3 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046906 Wesley Lowery conveyed the meaning of the article very well. He used sensory details and used tone to make people feel like]]> 2016-12-16 14:02:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046906 arender https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046928 I think the article by Westley lowery is well done because, it uses  sensory details and is also very descriptive on some of the key events. When reading the article a lot of emotions start to flood in,  like anger when you find out that the murders never where brought to justice by the court system and sadness and even happiness when seeing how may people still support Emmett and his family after many years. The article makes a connection with readers because maybe they've lost some one tragically. Imagery is used when Lowery describes how people felt when walking to support Emmet even though he has passed, so you can picture it in your mind.]]> 2016-12-16 14:02:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046928 irodriguez9 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046971 Wesley lowery's article is well done ]]> 2016-12-16 14:02:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144046971 zjohnson7 https://padlet.com/mgabridge/strategy2/wish/144047050 Wesley's article about Emmitt Till was very effective. The writer used a lot of different types of writing strategies like sensory detail, imagery, tone, etc.  The  writer gives the readers a lot of feeling in the article of Emmitt Till. He has the article sound sad and dark to have the reader feel bad for little Emmett Till and his family. He also uses different dark words like tragic, murder, etc, to give off feeling for the reader
