Rhetorical Analysis Word

The word I have chosen for my rhetorical analysis project is independent. The definition of independent is very open for discussion. You could argue its when you are financially independent, or just out on your own making your decisions. There is a very wide range when it comes to a definition of any word, specifically the term independent. It won't be very hard to find pop culture opinions on the definition of independent. One of the main groups behind the word in pop culture are women. In this coming age women are holding more power throughout the United States and emerging to become very influential, contrary to that of the older times. The kairos of this project could not have been any better. As a college freshman it is one the first true times I am independent of my parents. Not living under the roof of my parents has been an independent experience and will be a major topic in the paper I write. Below is a link to a video by Destiny's Child showcasing independent women of today.
