Martin Luther King Jr. was influenced by Thoreau’s "Civil Disobedience" because it explained methods for nonviolent protest. Option C is correct.
Thoreau’s "Civil Disobedience" was a blueprint for methods of nonviolent protest.
Thoreau wrote Civil Disobedience in 1849, amidst slavery issues and the Mexican-American war. He wrote it right after being imprisoned in Concord, Massachusetts charged with refusing to pay his taxes.
Thoreau claimed in the "Civil Disobedience" that the government was not fair, and democracy only favored and protected the majority.
He was reluctantto pay his taxes as part of the Civil Disobedience, since the Mexican American war would give way to an expansion of slavery he desagreed with.
Thus, Thoreau was regarded to as the pioneer of nonviolent methods to protest against the government and that inspired Martin Luther King Jr.
Answer:
Both Roger and Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones are African Americans, who share similar backgrounds and come from poor homes. Through Roger's comments, one can surmise that he comes from a broken, poverty-stricken home, where he is forced to provide and take care of himself, which explains why he is dirty, hungry, and desperate for money. After Mrs. Jones drags Roger back to her home and makes him a warm plate of food, she explains to Roger that she understands what it feels like to want something that she cannot afford. Mrs. Jones then admits that she too made poor decisions in her youth and committed crimes that she is not proud of, which is another similarity that she shares with Roger. However, she does make it a point to say that she never snatch anybody's pocketbook before. Mrs. Jones's shared race and socioeconomic background allow her to sympathize and bond with Roger, who respects and appreciates her kindness and benevolence.
