Rhetorical Analysis
-Piece: Photograph of a homeless girl and a man giving his
shoes to her. It was found on Buzzfeed. Published June 20, 2012.
Main point is the kindness can simply express on any given day, that if you see
someone in need, it’s acceptable to help them out.
-Agent: It was by Buzzfeed. There was no contact information that I could find.
-Receivers: The primary audience can be someone with a kind, giving heart or someone that has enough to give to someone that nothing at all. I would be part of the audience. If I ever saw someone in need, I would help them in any way I could.
-Agenda: I could not find any bias
-Demands: It may urge that people should be kind and give if possible to people that need help or just a kind gesture. If the demand are met, it would just a bunch of peoples days, and help out even it is as simple as giving up a pair of shoes. If not, nothing would happen, people in need would just continue needing little things.
-Inquiries: How the girl might have felt after she was given the shoes. And it is not doing any of that.
-Gains: Nothing, but he made me feel about the people out there. That there are truly kind people willing to do anything for people that need help.
-Motivators: Probably to show the kindness and tenderness of the photo. I was looking for photos that showed friendly, nice people.
