Read the excerpt from "Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry."
For me, reading has always been a path toward liberation and fulfillment. To learn to read is to start down the
road of liberation, a road which should be accessible to everyone. No one
has the right to keep you from
reading, and yet that is what is happening in many areas in this country today. There
are those who think
they
know best what we should read. These censors are at work in all areas of
our daily lives.
Which best describes the rhetoric used in this excerpt to increase the reader's awareness of censorship?

a strong opinion is presented to appeal to the reader's sense of justice
