The correct answer is C) it conveys King’s beliefs that the goals of the Civil Rights movement are pure and just in the same way that America’s founding ideals are pure and just.

<em>The statement that best explains how the word “sacred” affects the meaning of the speech is: It conveys King’s beliefs that the goals of the Civil Rights movement are pure and just in the same way that America’s founding ideals are pure and just. </em>

In “A Letter from Birmingham Jail”, Martin Luther King Jr. uses wisely the word “sacred” because for him it represents something very cherished and valued. It is a strong belief he feels when compare the Civil Rights movement with the “heritage of the U.S. and the will of God”. For him, this is of the utmost importance and the term “sacred” is clear and profound.

Answer:

Check below for the answers and explanations.

Explanation:

1) This was a time that the freedom of America was threatened by dictator states. Americans, according to Roosevelt, are greatly concerned in the defence of freedom. This defence of freedom can only be achieved if members of Congress do not only trust in armament but have great belief in that one supreme cause, the defence of freedom and the maintenance of a free world.

2) Roosevelt told the people that there were many areas of their social economy that needed improvement, he highlighted several needs of the American people that the State was aiming at meeting. He then said everybody had to pay the sacrifice for an improvement in the social and economic life. This can be done by increase in taxation.

He told the Congress that the nation's armed forces lacked sufficient weapons to defeat these dictator states. He said the only way they can help them to win this war is to provide them with weapons worth Billions of dollars. He was constantly reminding them that the defence of America's freedom was necessary at that time.

Example:

1)

"Our most useful and immediate role is to act as an arsenal for them as well as for ourselves. They do not need man power, but they do need billions of dollars worth of the weapons of defense.

The time is near when they will not be able to pay for them all in ready cash. We cannot, and we will not, tell them that they must surrender, merely because of present inability to pay for the weapons which we know they must have."

2)

" The happiness of future generations of Americans may well depend upon how effective and how immediate we can make our aid felt. No one can tell the exact character of the emergency situations that we may be called upon to meet. The Nation’s hands must not be tied when the Nation’s life is in danger."

3) The socio economic situation of America has since then been dependent on the policies of the government at different periods. Sometimes it improves, at other times it declines. For example in 1941, the unemployment rate was 9.9%, GDP growth was 17.7%, Inflation rate was 9.9%.

In 2019, the unemployment rate was 3.5%, GDP growth was 2.3%, Inflation rate was 2.3%.
