In the letter from Birmingham jail there were many emotional, logical and ethical appeals. It starts off hitting you emotions by saying my dear fellow Clergymen, which is being emotional. He answers very kind with not my contention and says he wants to answer their questions, which is logical. He talks about non-violence, which is very ethical thing to do and shows emotion that way. He talks about how he is there because there is injustice. So he showing he has ethics this way to sound more believable. He shows a lot of emotion by seeing that he was very polite and cared about things. I like his logic to in the article he sounded logical in what he said. In this writing there were a lot of uses of logic and ethics, and emotional appeal he told what people wanted to hear. It was well used and sounded good in the letter. In the letter he talks about negotiation and doesn’t want to be confrontational. This is very good logic and ethics he uses.
I also think Martin Luther King Jr. does a good job at using ethos, pathos, and logos. He is very convincing.
