Answer:
The speaker in "An Obstacle" and Emma Watson both share the tones of "seriousness" and "pleading." Both of them discussed how serious gender inequality is, especially for women. They also pleaded that people should work together in order to attain such equality and unity among genders.
Explanation:
"An Obstacle" was written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Like Gilman, Emma Watson is also a feminist. Watson presented her speech which was focused on "HeForShe: Gender Equality is Your Issue, Too."
Gilman, on the other hand, showed the world how it was to live as a woman during her time. At the end of her poem, she mentioned that standing up for your right is very important. This is similar to Watson's speech which also showed that both men and women should have equal rights and should also stand up for it.
So, this explains the answer.
