Uddrag
Marlon James’ essay is an answer to what happened with Philando Castile in 2017: “This essay was not a response to George Floyd ‘s murder but Philando Castile ‘s in 2017.” - (p. 1, ll. 17-18)
The exact same scenario unfolded; how could such an incident reappear? According to James, the answer is to be found in the scary society colored people must deal with. It is ruled by white people.
The subject of the essay is racial injustice. As mentioned earlier the fight for equal rights between races all over the world is still a massive problem. The subject is well known and has been a fight that yet has lasted for almost two centuries.
In addition to that, through the usage of a variety of rhetorical devices, Marlon James makes it easier for the audience to understand his message.
