IgorLugansk [536]

In his letter, Martin Luther King Jr. uses several allusions. An allusion is an indirect reference to an idea from an unrelated context. This is meant to exemplify or expand a point that the author is making, as well as provide support to an argument or make it more persuasive.

One of the allusions King makes is a reference to two important Catholic theologians and philosophers: Thomas Aquinas and St. Augustine. King argues that these scholars support the idea that humans have a duty to disobey unjust laws that do not uplift the human spirit. King argues that segregation does not uplift the spirit, but crushes it.
