For my MMT, I have decided to make a Minecraft video that walks through the builds/models of my site over time while speaking about its history. The relationship between this and my research essay is that both share the same facts and arguments about the change of my site’s community over time through discrimination and politics. The difference between both rhetorical situations is that the MMT is a video medium while the research essay is written. The audience also differs as the video is meant to attract people who are unlikely to read an eight-page essay about the history of Chinatown but may be more inclined to watch a video with visuals or listen to a video with the contents of my essay in it. But generally, both serve the same purpose of showing Chinatown’s historical changes in community through discrimination and politics of the time.
