Interesting speech topic for a 16 year old females speech.?

[dalilah]

I have to come up with a good speech topic, any suggestions?

The topic can be of anything, there are no details.

I would pick topics that are current and have a strong opposition on both sides. Here are some examples.

Political
1. Arab-Israeli Conflict/ Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
2. Gay Marriage
3. The Supreme Court's lift on political donations
4. Gun Control
5. Legalization of marijuana
6. Public option for health care
7. The death penalty

These are all pretty common topics that you can find a huge amount of info on. Aside from #1 I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of your fellow classmates will choose these topics. As you didn't give much background info I'm not sure if that is a good thing. Hope I could help.
