CRA Topic Questions

My subject on the Comparative Rhetorical Analysis is going to be on Gender Equality. I chose this topic because recently, on January 21^st , a Women’s march took place in Washington D.C. An estimate of 500,000 people marched in DC. In addition, there were 680 marches that day with an estimated total of around 5 million people marching for women’s equality. This was a historic day for women and a portrayal of power for not only men, but for women. It is a current and ongoing issue that obviously acquires and deserves more than attention. On June 4^th 1919, Congress had passed the 19^th amendment that guarantees all American women the right to vote. Despite this monumental date, women to this day are still undermined in society. The main issue of gender equality is continually rising on all sorts of media such as: CNN, ABC, fox news, nydailynews, and more. Women are fighting to seek for more equal pay, a decrease stereotypes, more dominance, and equal respect. This debate is related to all economical, social, cultural, and political aspects. Discourses would cross all parts of media: news, television, magazines, articles, and social media. CNN especially has many articles on that pertain to the Women’s March. Interviews from people within the march would provide good source for accurate analysis, but it is important to be cautious of any bias information.
