What Are You Passionate About?
Arguing in support of a cause you care about is a vital skill. Understanding positions outside of your own can be an exercise in critical thinking to help you understand your own position and advance it better in the future. Choosing a topic and position you are passionate about will add a strong undercurrent of fire that can help you show the audience the importance of your topic through your delivery.
The goal of this speech is to persuade the audience that your position is the strongest and best-supported. It is not to inform the audience about the existence of a controversial issue so they can make up their minds. You must adopt a clear position on a topic or issue and advance and support it with strong arguments and passionate delivery built on a solid foundation of your own credibility. Influence the audience and move us to action!
For this speech, choose a topic that you care about and a position on that topic that you are passionate about. Make sure the issue or topic indeed has multiple angles from which to discuss it (i.e. people can be persuaded about it). Ensure that your topic is relevant to the audience and is neither a safe nor flashpoint issue.
A visual aid is optional for this speech. Make this decision with your message and audience in mind. If you feel it would help you, I encourage you to use one. If you feel that you can best advance your argument if the audience focuses their attention entirely on your arguments and delivery, I encourage you to remain the sole star of the show.
Specifics:

- 6-8 minutes in length.
