Compare And Contrast A Letter To Martin Luther King Jr.
I feel like Martin Luther King Jr. was mainly direction his letters to the people in Birmingham, Alabama. But as a whole he was talking to everyone in America, dealing with racism. He was talking to people of the churches, explaining that is not okay to call themselves Christians, but still being involved with racism, slaves, judgment, and hatred on colored people. I believe that the occasion for Martin Luther King Jr. letter was his was of protesting while he was in the Birmingham Jail. King was expressing his feelings about the way everyone was treating colored people, even children. He even stated in letter two that colored little boys and girls would cry because they couldn’t do things that white kids could do, like going to amusement parks.
He was trying to explain to others how wrong it was for white Christians to not defend the Blacks. King believed that children of God should sand up and help the colored. Only God should judge, that is not something that the church should be doing. I do think that Martin Luther Ming Jr. writing these letters would’ve been effective. Because he makes good points about why racism is wrong, and talks about how badly they were beaten and hated on. And I feel that, when he talked about the little girl crying, and the boy asking about why white people are so mean to black people, that would’ve made others realize that their actions are also hurting children, not just the adults. I think that all of the things that happened to colored, and things that they weren’t allowed to do, that King talked about would’ve made others come to the realization that everything they are doing isn’t right and that it needs to come to and end
