The correct answer is:

He describes white moderates as paternalistic and condescending.

Explanation:

Martin Luther King Jr. wrote The Letter from Birmingham Jail in April 16, 1963, when he was imprisoned at the Birmingham Jail for the Birmingham campaign  to end segregation. On his letter King expressed his philosophy of nonviolence manifestation, and his frustration towards white moderates who claimed to support the cause but used to say that the time was not right, nor the methods used.

He described white moderates as paternalistic and condescending, white moderates thought they should protect African American people, they claimed that they supported the cause and agreed that they deserved the same rights and freedom but didn't allow them to have freedom because they thought the time was not right, and it was not convenient for the entire population of white men. This is why King stated that shallow understanding is more dangerous than opposition.

Why did the US enter WWI? Write one paragraph
Virty [35]

Answer:

The U.S entered WW1 for several reasons. The U.S entered for two main reasons: one was that the Germans had declared unlimited German submarine warfare and the Zimmermann note. The German had totally disregarded the international laws protecting neutral nation’s ships by sinking neutral ships. We warned the Germans one too many times and they did not take us seriously so in 1917 we finally had enough and we joined the war.

The Germans had decided that they would sink any ship they wanted without warning even if it was a merchant ship. This had upset the Americans because they soon started losing

many American lives even though they were neutral. One of the worst incidents was the sinking of the Lusitania, a British luxury liner which the Germans sunk without first warning the ship. The Germans had killed 128 Americans that were on the luxury liner. After that incident the Germans sunk the Arabic and Sussex and created pledges with the United States saying that they would not sink anymore unarmed ships and would visit and search. The Germans how ever would go back on their pledges causing the U.S to get involved.

The Germans had sent the Zimmermann note to the German ambassador in Mexico but was intercepted and decoded by the British. It was then sent to the U.S and given to Wilson. This note helped the U.S enter the war. Wilson showed this note to congress to so that he would be allowed to arm merchant ships and then enter the war to fight germany.
