"Women's Right to Vote" vs. "Ten Point Plan"

Both of these pieces obviously have very strong opinions about what they want to happen.  However their styles are very different.  "Ten Point Plan" uses a much more forceful language.  It makes the reader threatened.  It is a list of demands without a lot of evidence, and the Black Panthers' are not too concerned with proving their point to the white people through evidence.  They use the tactic of asking for way more than what would be considered reasonable in hopes to get at least part of what they want.  At the end of their list, point number 10, they do use solid evidence.  They quote the "Declaration of Independence" word for word. They use it as a warning and this is a smart move on their part because of the history of the document, but this is the only time they use such historical evidence. 

However, Susan B. Anthony's "Women's Right to Vote" is full of evidence all throughout the piece.  The first smart move she makes is to write for her audience.  In this case it is men.  She is fully aware that they are not going to agree with her, and she thinks through what their arguments are going to be.  She then provides evidence to support her side.  She cites all kinds of good sources making her piece very credible.  She uses different laws, the "Declaration of Independence", "The Constitution", and "The Bible."   She also makes other solid points.  The one that struck me the most was when she pointed out that the laws are written using the pronouns he and him.  Those laws still apply to her and everyone else despite their gender.  However the pronouns he and him do not apply to everyone when it comes to the right to vote.  This is not fair, and it does not make sense.  I have a lot of respect for Susan B. Anthony and the way she presented her argument.  Her piece is by far more persuasive than that of The Black Panthers'.
