As you watch the video below, follow along and annotate your text (309), highlighting and commenting on ideas that are related to the prompt: Does power (government) uplift or undermine individual rights/freedoms?
When you finish the speech, turn to stations five/six in your packet. Follow the instructions below.
Directions: As you follow along with Malala’s speech, highlight or underline moments in the text that you want to include in the chart below (this is the same chart as the one we used to analyze JFK). After you finish the speech, collect three quotes from the speech.
Remember: the chart below represents the “quote” sandwich, where the first column is your lead in (establishing context), the second column is your quote, and the third column is your commentary. Remember, as you build commentary, you are not evaluating what Malala says, rather, you are building an argument about how power can undermine of uplift individual freedom. Thus, as shown below, your commentary isn’t concerned with Malala’s words, rather how his words support your argument.
First column: Discuss both the historical context of the quote (explain how it connects to the world and the message Kennedy wanted to send).
Second Column: “Quote” (para _).
Third Column: Explain how the quote supports the prompt. Remember, it is often useful to use the language of the prompt (power, government, uplift, undermine, freedom, rights) in your analysis to ensure it is focused on the topic we’re discussing.
