Florence Kelley was a reformer who fought diligently to change the rights of women specifically in the 1905 conference in Philadelphia. Kelley gave a speech advocating for women to gain the right to vote. Given that her audience was women, Kelley appeals to her audience by combining pathos and logos as well as repetition to speak about ending child labor laws through voting. Florence Kelley uses logos to induce pathos in her audience. Kelly relates to the audience that “several little girls will be working in textile mills, all night through” (19). Harsh factories are no place for vulnerable girls. She continues to evoke emotions through thought provoking questions such as, “what can we do to free our consciences” (85).
