What rhetorical device is illustrated here? Since we so diligently urge people to obey the Supreme Court's
decision of 1954 outlawing segregation in the public schools, at
first glance it may seem rather paradoxical for us consciously to break laws.

A.) Hypophoria

B.) Antithesis

C.) Allusion

D.) Repetition

I believe the rhetorical device illustrated in the passage to be:

B. antithesis

Explanation:

Antithesis is a rhetorical device that consists in placing together two opposite ideas with the purpose of contrasting them. It often uses parallel structures to enhance such effect. In the passage, the speaker does precisely that. Two opposing ideas are presented, one right after the other. First, the idea of abiding by the law, of obeying the Supreme Court's decision. Then, the idea of breaking the law. This is an example of antithesis.
