You are a tutor for a public speaking class. An international student from Korea has come to you with a concern about a speech he is preparing to deliver, in which he advocates the Korean practice of eating dog meat. It seems that the practice had come up in an informal discussion in his dorm, and his fellow students had reacted so strongly and so negatively that he wanted to develop a better way to handle the situation. Now, however, he’s having second thoughts about the speech. He wants your advice about whether or not to proceed with the topic, especially since one of his friends pointed out that the practice may be illegal in the U.S. (but he wasn’t sure).
