Themes: Argument

Excellent conversation(s) today. Here are some links you asked for:

• The RadioLab episode (unheard by me) mentioned during our first discussion
• Trump’s announcement speech.
• The GOP debate from last month:

I’ll wrap up your essays and have them in the grade book tomorrow.

Don’t forget to bring a copy of the speech/argument you have chosen to replace the LBJ reading (here, if you’re interested). I’ll give you a moment in class to make a case for why we should read it. You could read a few lines, briefly present the argument contained, provide historical context, or provide just enough information to pique our interests… We’ll vote in class and I’ll make copies for everyone. Don’t fret if yours is not chosen—there will be plenty of time to read more after this one. ((Of course, you could also pass out copies to everyone interested and start your own shadow classroom.))
