Question

Specialists in communication are often hired to clean up problems created by unthoughtful messaging. While advocates dedicate significant amounts of time and energy promoting causes, they often struggle to clearly identify their logical positions. To further the problem, in light of clear arguments advocates commonly utilize informal fallacies to persuade their target audiences. These weaknesses tend to create easily avoidable communications crises. The first step is to identify the communicative problems.

For this assignment, identify a social issue you are personally interested in learning more about, advocating for the cause, or are against it, and identify fallacious reasoning.

In 750-1,000words:

Research an advocate (individual or organization) that promotes a relevant social issue. Identify the organization and explain the relevancy of the social issue.

Show the steps you took to translate the position/argument you researched into a clear logical form by writing out the logical premises and conclusions from the material presented by the advocate.

Identify a minimum of five informal fallacies that are made by the advocate. Explain the fallacies themselves and how each functions.

At leasttwo academic peer-reviewed sources are required for this paper.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

1. Advocate that Promotes a Selected Social Issue
The advocate that is selected for this study is the Starbucks organization. The social issue, which is fought against by the organization, is discrimination and it promotes diversification. As mentioned by Typaldos (2016), this business has inspired and nurtured the human spirit. All their partners are diverse in nature. They belong to different genders, races, religions, ethnicities, presence or absence of disabilities, sexual orientations and age groups. They also include the employees from a diversified cultural background. This organization prefers to promote diversity and control the discrimination occurring in the world.
This organization also prefers to support the rights of every individual and emphasizes on the conduction of business ethically. They prefer the ethical sourcing of the products such as cocoa, tea and coffee. This organization has invested in the empowerment of the farmers. As mentioned by Taylor (2017), Starbucks is a part of the global effort over the next five years to employ around 10,000 refugees whose talent can enrich the communities and serve around the world. They have joined the like-minded organizations to hire and support the refugees.
On the contrary, in 2018, Starbucks found itself in the biggest scandal ever when two Black men were made victims of racism only on the sheer grounds of awaiting their friend in the store, without purchasing anything.
