You are to analyze James Baldwin’s essay “Notes of a Native Son,” identifying significant examples of ethos, pathos, and/or logos he uses, and explaining how each appeal he makes either strengthens or weakens the argument being made to his target audience. This is a large chunk of text to analyze, so the first thing you need to do, before writing, is determine who Baldwin’s audience is, and what the thesis of his essay is. Once you know those things, you’ll be able to organize your paper from there.
