I found both of these videos effective; I believe both speakers had their own way of getting their point across, yet I believe it was effective in both speeches. The first speech was a little more direct, her timing was shorter than the second video yet she was paced and stated her reasoning as to why school should start at a later time as well as statistics that backed it up. The first speaker also mentioned counter arguments, which I liked and agreed with, as to why they were not exactly valid; such as when she mentioned how a later starting schedule for school would cause students to sleep later and later make that a habit, she rebutted by mentioning how students already have a set time where they want to be asleep and when they feel rested enough to wake up. Due to her being a parent herself and knowing that she has to go through that at times in the earlier mornings, in her case waking up at 4am, she was able to connect with the audience and they were able to relate to it whether they had personally gone through that or whether they had children at home saw where she was coming from. The speaker was also able to persuade the audience by stating statistics and why the counter arguments were not valid for every point she had made. The second speaker had much more time yet she still managed to attain the attention of the audience the whole way through by not only mentioning women, but by mentioning men and how they are also held to standards that maybe they might not agree with or might not actually like. I liked how the second speaker made the whole speech about stories and was able to laugh with the audience in order to connect with them and have them see how there are always little actions that show that no matter how much time has passed, men still technically “rule the world” with higher wages and more respect though in the same position as the woman. I find her story telling very persuasive because she not only mentioned when it first started but she also mentioned how one doesn’t exactly have to change who they are in order to believe in the equality of men and women; I believe it was very effective especially when she mentioned how men are put into a “cage of masculinity” and they are taught to be “afraid of fear”, it not only caught the attention of men but it made them realize that not only are women stereotyped but men are as well.
