Rhetoric: Creating community through public speaking

do make a stand.

Model

Now, imagine and picture what Australia will be like when Indigenous

people make a firm and solid stand in their communities. Standing up for

their ideas, beliefs, and their culture.

When we make a stand, our people will be recognised.

When we make a stand, our people will be respected and acknowledged.

When we make a stand, reconciliation will inhabit and dwell in this country

we call home.

Transition to the last

We don't want Australia to end up like this. Do we? In coming to the end of

part

my speech, I will declare again the importance of making a stand in your

community.

Slogan

Do you stand up and speak up for your ideas, beliefs and culture in your

community?

Do you want the Indigenous people of this country to be recognised,

respected and reconciled?

Let's make a stand. It's up to you, me, and up to the future generations of

Indigenous people to make a difference to this country.

So don't stand around, stand up and make a difference in your community,

in your state and in our country.

Thank you for listening. It has be both a privilege and a pleasure to speak

and share with you.

NOTE:

This speech extends the minimum structure by:

1. expanding single phrases into Doubles (eg inhabit and dwell) or Triples (eg recognised,

respected and reconciled);

2. adding an Introduction;

3. adding Transitions between the parts of the speech.

Depending on time, you may leave these out while retaining the essence of speeches of praise

(epideictic speech).
