I had a safe journey back to Cape town even though I arrived in the wee hours and had nobody to fatch me from the airport. I wrote this letter to update you about Nelson Mandela's inaugural address.
Answer:
Dear Isaiah,
I read a speech by Nelson Mandela that I thought you would also appreciate.
In his speech, he tries to persuade his audience to move beyond the suffering of the past, celebrate the accomplishments of the present, and strive for unity, justice, and peace in the future. He achieves this by including parallelism and calls to action in his speech. Mandela uses the words “heroes and heroines” to describe people in the audience who have “sacrificed” for justice. This connects him to those people in the audience because he is expressing gratitude for their actions. One message in Mandela’s speech is that pursuing justice and peace will be hard work and require working together. He conveys this by encouraging the audience not to try to “act alone.”
Let me know what you think about Mandela’s speech.
Sincerely,
Brandon
