Presentation

In the presentation I am only briefly explaining who Walter Sickert is before going on to discuss reasons why people would want him to be the Ripper. I think Luc missed the point of the PowerPoint, as we're not just reading from it. There are just a few facts and details of who the person is we're talking about then we go into more depth in our verbal presentation. The PowerPoint is just a visual aid, not half our grade, we don't even need one.
My main argument for why people want Sickert to be the Ripper is that he's famous, he's eccentric and, to some extent, was born in Germany. (I cannot talk about these things without introducing people to who he actually is. Hence the facts!) People have always feared what they don't understand, it's human nature. Seeing as Sickert was different and a little strange this can make people think he was bad or evil. I will obviously develop this argument further, verbally, tomorrow.
Good luck everyone.
