Paul Keating\'s Redfern Speech
Paul Keating's speech at Redfern Park in Sydney is a brilliant example of rhetoric and experienced political spin. The speech is well-executed and shows solid use of fallacy and the three modes of persuasion: pathos, ethos, and logos. The use of rhetorical devices is akin an expert sushi chef using his knives—rapid, precise, stunning. The use of epiphora, particularly in tricolon format, lends both cadence and emphasis. The word imagine is used in this manner and in epiphora convention, as the word is repeated in successive clauses. The connotation of the word confident is made more powerful by its proximity to the word imagine. Further, antithesis is threaded throughout by deliberate distinctions between non-Aboriginal and indigenous Australians, and presumably to use the favored terms of reference for every member of the audience—as it is a political speech. There is a great divide between the experiences and treatment of the privileged primarily white non-indigenous citizens of Australia and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island people. Keating does not shy away from this fact. Indeed, he even underscores the confounding problem by reminding the now privileged Australians that they were not always so, through his use of erotema. He asks again and again, if Australia did not open its doors and extend its hands to the dispossessed people of Ireland, Britain, Europe, and Asia.
