Anxiety for the Working Class American in the Age of Covid-19

 For Unit 3 of Art of Rhetoric we focused on the question, "how do we use our voices to unite?" In this unit we got to meet with the comedy duo A Complete Waste of Your Time and Money to discuss their Biden campaign ads. In these ads brought an element of absurdity and political commentary. In our discussion we talked about how comedy is great way to disarm people by making them laugh. Also mentioning how in order to unite you shouldn't be "bashing down on others." They achieve this method by cultivating what they call "the melting pot" accent which includes a little bit of each accent from different parts of the country. For Unit 3, we had to pick an art medium we wanted to use to express an opinion that is "breaking the sound barrier" and unite. I chose to use photography to express how Americans struggling through the pandemic have become a topic for political debate between politicians by sampling the perspective of the working class who need some sort of relief and aid.
