Effective Argument

He is addressing his fellow clergymen. He is addressing racial segregation. He seems angry and concerned in the letter. I believe this letter is very effective. He was a very good speaker. I find the argument "Anyone who lives inside the United States can never be considered an outsider anywhere within its bounds" logical.  We should be interested what happens all over the country,
 and not ignore it, just because it didn't happen in our area.  It can still happen there too.  I feel like he does a great job balancing logos, ethos and pathos. He mostly uses logos, but also ethos and pathos.  He uses name calling and hasty generalization. I feel like he should have left out the logical fallacies or word them different, but then it wouldn't have been as effective. I think reading this before my persuasive paper would have helped me a lot.  He wrote a very effective letter.
