Read the excerpt from "Choice: A Tribute to Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr." by Alice Walker.
The public acts of Dr. King you know. They are visible
all around you. His voice you would recognize sooner
than any other voice you have heard in this century-
this in spite of the fact that certain municipal libraries,
like the one in downtown Jackson, do not carry
recordings of his speeches, and the librarians chuckle
cruelly when asked why they do not.
Mark this and return
What is the effect of the rhetorical appeal in this
excerpt?
OIt accuses the reader of not being familiar with
King's work.
OIt asks the reader to question why King is not
respected as a leader.
OIt explains why people have not heard famous
speeches.
It questions the knowledge of the people who work
in libraries.
Answer:
Olt accuses the reader of not being familiar with King's work
Explanation:
When you read the excerpt, the beginning starts off by telling you that Dr. King's works are all around you, basically informing you about him. This shows that he assumes you dont know much about Dr. King.

Explain how Sartre might defend existentialism against the claim that it leaves a moral vacuum. Your answer should be at least 250 words.
Sartre defended existentialism against several charges which had been made against it.
How does Sartre defend existentialism?The ideology of existentialism promotes "quietism of sadness." They perceived it to be an inaction ideology. They perceived it as purely reflective and believed that it prevented people from committing to any path of action.Because they focus on all that is ludicrous and unpleasant about the human state, existentialists tend to be extremely gloomy.Existentialism places an undue emphasis on a person's personal decisions. It disregards humankind's shared solidarity.In the name of freedom of existential choice, existentialism appears to defend the most horrific atrocities. It denies the premise that morality is a gift from God.Concerning these concerns, Sartre responds by referring to his ideas of "abandonment," "anguish," and "despair."He employs these words as technical terms, and they have very precise connotations for him that are extremely distinct from their meanings in everyday speech. In common usage, these three phrases convey varying degrees of misery and powerlessness. Sartre believes that despite maintaining some of these negative connotations, they also have an upbeat quality that may not be apparent from a cursory reading of the text.The feeling of loss brought on by realizing there is no deity to compel our moral decisions or to provide us with instructions on how to earn salvation is referred to as "abandonment."The sense of this extra duty, which is an inevitable aspect of being human, is described by Sartre as "anguish." He likens it to the sense of accountability felt by a military commander whose choices have grave repercussions for the men under his command.According to Sartre, "despair" refers to the existentialist's perspective on the elements of the world that are beyond our control.Hence, this is how Sartre responds to critiques of his philosophy and defends Existentialism.

"Have an accident insurance ticket, also?"
"No," I said, after studying the matter over a little. "No, I believe not; I am going to be traveling by rail all day today. However, tomorrow I don't travel. Give me one for tomorrow."
The man looked puzzled. He said:
"But it is for accident insurance, and if you are going to travel by rail—"
"If I am going to travel by rail I sha'n't need it. Lying at home in bed is the thing I am afraid of."
I had been looking into this matter. Last year I traveled twenty thousand miles, almost entirely by rail; the year before, I traveled over twenty-five thousand miles, half by sea and half by rail; and the year before that I traveled in the neighborhood of ten thousand miles, exclusively by rail. I suppose if I put in all the little odd journeys here and there, I may say I have traveled sixty thousand miles during the three years I have mentioned. AND NEVER AN ACCIDENT.
