In Dr. King's essay 'Letter from Birmingham Jail' he addresses the claims made about his arrest by the eight clergymen. His responses are very long and detailed, giving a very compelling and moving point of view. His letter is directed to his audience, which consists of white middle class citizens who Dr. King refers to as the 'white moderates'. Dr. King's letter is very persuasive because his use of pathos makes the audience think or imagine themselves in the situation. It is very poignant of him to write his letter this way. He is in touch with the views of his audience, which makes a greater impact on his readers. Dr. King uses antidotes to make his readers see the injustice and cruelty.(again, where is your thesis? The topic of the essay is about progress of racism, prejudice, and bias in current society base on the letter from Dr. Martin Luther King,Jr.. Please read the assignment paper carefully)

He addresses their feelings on the issues that are surrounding Birmingham, helping them to come to the realization that this was in fact what they were thinking and saying, and that they need to act on it for anything to change. He goes on to say? We bring it out into the open, where it can be seen and dealt with? (where is your reason to support your thesis?) King uses irony, by giving examples of him using peaceful actions that were condemned anyway because they were said to? Precipitate violence? He went on to say? Isn't? That likes condemning a robbed man because his possession of money precipitated in the evil act of robbery?

Dr. King also realizes that the white moderates are mostly religious. He reminds them? Human progress never rolls in on wheels of inevitability; it comes through tireless efforts of men willing to be co-workers with God? Again, he urges the audience to get up and become active, and that there will be no change without their action. In paragraph 32, Dr. King again directly addresses his audience. He begins by saying? I had hoped the white moderate would see this need. Perhaps I was too optimistic; perhaps I expected too much? He makes them take a look at what they are and is not contributing to the situation, and brings about a certain amount of guilt that they should do something to help. He continues with?

Thus, the need for direct action to force the issue upon the community is further exemplified. King combines the use of ethos and pathos as he compares himself and the rights of men to religious backgrounds. His first comparison is with the Apostle Paul, where Paul had “carried the gospel of Jesus Christ,” as to Kings carrying of “the gospel of freedom.” King addresses this similarity to show why he felt committed to go to Birmingham, because like Paul, he needed to respond as an aid to his people. Towards the end of Kings Letter; he exemplifies courageousness in the Negro demonstrations by relating them to the actions of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego when they refused to follow what they believed to be unjust laws. Saying that if they are supposed heroes by going against unjust laws, why shouldn't the people see Negro demonstrators the same way? They are also God's children and by those disobedience’s, they were really showing the grace of God. These connections to religion support their fighting against unjust laws as a divine cause. While the comparisons to Christian backgrounds may better help a religious reader better connect to King's Message, emotional suffering helps all whites sympathize to the blacks hardships. Starting out with mentioning how long the blacks have had to “wait” for desegregation when their God given rights already.

Classic Dr. King. He uses a vivid and down-to-earth metaphor as the fulcrum of his argument: racial injustice in the South is like a hidden boil, a gross, festering sore that has to be acknowledged and examined in order to be cured. Belch, get it off. It's comforting to think of Progress as some great historical machine that keeps improving itself, going faster all the time, making life better and better without any of us having to do anything. It's also comforting to think of pizza and chocolate as the foundation of a healthy diet that will help us live to be two hundred years old. Unfortunately, neither of these things is true, and we have to get off our rushes (in both scenarios). The king's last argument was about policies and rules of government about criticism injustice against African American peoples. How you can treat with human with unethical manner? And you forced peoples that pay respect humanity and forget yourself why? All of this arguments, I described the all points about king's point of views and how to apply them in society.

(where is your conclusion about the essay? Please take it seriously and do not try to search on the internet, write by yourself and focus on our essay topic. On the basis of Martin Luther King's letter, write a dissertation on the subject of our current racial discrimination. Does prejudice have progressed compared to the previous era? Then your full-text sentence (thesis) is answered, yes or no. Then list your points of view and examples to support your full-text central sentence, rather than reading this Martin Luther King's letter. Now your composition has been biased)
