Steps
is a rhetorical technique in which the speaker starts with one word or idea and shows how it can grow to a more meaningful idea, or a more dangerous one with slight increases to that point. EX: Malcolm X's speech "The Black Man's History" "And when it got to that stage it would be weak, and because it was weak it would be susceptible to wickedness. And then Yacub could take that weak man that he made and teach him how to lie and rob and cheat and thereby become the ruler of all the rest of the world."
