Think Piece 6:ATime toKill
Address the prompts below in a thoughtfully composed essay.
In the movie for this unit, Carl Lee, the father, referred to Jake, his attorney, as his secret weapon. Carl advised Jake on his
defense, saying that Jakes sees him like the all-White jury sees him, and Carl asked what it would take to convince Jake to
acquit. Jake took that advice and ran with it; it worked.
Make an argument, based on the movie, as to whether or not you think Carl was right. Was Jake Carls enemy? What
fallacies (if any) were present in his thinking?
As evidence for your argument, you can only use things from the movie itself, but you should demonstrate knowledge
learned in this unit.
Your completed assignment must be at least one page in length. APA Style will not be required for this assignment
