Rationale

 I wrote a protest letter about the victims of Bloody Sunday in Northern Ireland. It was written with an accusative_ tone and hopes to address the Prime Minister. In my letter,  I tried to present my point of  view  with phrase like “they were just protesting and that is a civil right” and “the english must gave more help to the families of the people killed”. I tried as well to use a sophisticated level of vocabulary with words like civil rights and  polotical action” finally I tried to use complex structures like one might see in a higher level publication such as The New York Times with sentences like “you treated them like dogs with aids and going against civil rights would be like a dicatatorship”. Using these elements I feel I reached my purpose set out in the task. This task addresses the topic “Taking a Stand”  and specially addresses the topic of the abuse of power. I think  a letter of protest helped me to  best express what I learned from the topics we studied in this unit and how I feel about them
