RHETORICAL CRITICISM
This project is meant to shed some light on the conversations being had around the (Muslim) Travel Ban by major newspapers across political leanings.
This site is meant to walk you through my project. You'll see pages meant to give you context, root this conversation in research, and examine the impact of the coverage of the Muslim Ban.
​
Hopefully you'll leave with a deeper understanding of the issue, the events, the conversations, the positions, and a clearer understanding of how framing texts produces or perpetuates the same stories we tell ourselves.
