I have to say, you definitely had the most professional sounding speech so far, and that seems to be your style. You really engaged the audience and incorporated your evidence perfectly. The way your topic wove into current events made it refreshing and relevant. I liked how you took an interesting stance too, one that isn’t necessarily prevalent in the media. And you explained it in a way that was tangible for the audience, which made it even better.
