**45 POINTS** In his argument for constructive, nonviolent tension, King wisely cites Socrates, the ancient Greek philosopher wh

om King suggests also advocated a form of tension.
For his English assignment, Zach is writing a brief analysis of the topic of nonviolent tension that he drew from “Letter from a Birmingham Jail.” Which sentence best follows the sentence above to clarify King's reference to Socrates?

The correct answer is C) tension is uncomfortable and people who are in tense situations will either act to change the situation or remove themselves from the situation completely.

<em>The statement that best follows the sentence above to clarify’s King’s references to Socrates is “tension is uncomfortable and people who are in tense situations will either act to change the situation or remove themselves from the situation completely.” </em>

In his 1963 “Letter from Birmingham Jail”, Martin Luther King Jr. evokes three times to Socrates, the famous ancient Greek philosopher. In the letter, King addressed the clergymen who critique his nonviolence resistant way of protesting. So the statement that best follows the sentence above to clarify’s King’s references to Socrates is “tension is uncomfortable and people who are in tense situations will either act to change the situation or remove themselves from the situation completely.”
