Answer: This was actually part of a longer portion of his speech to reporters in 1968 when Martin Luther King got killed. The complete version of this portion is, "For those of you who are black and are tempted to be filled with hatred and mistrust of the injustice of such an act, against all white people, I would only say that I can also feel in my own heart the same kind of feeling. I had a member of my family killed, but he was killed by a white man."

Dear Sir/Madam,
Subject: <u>Concerns about Climate Change</u>
It is a privilege to express my thoughts to your renowned newspaper today Sir. I want to draw your attention to the rising effects and threat of climate change in our society today.
It has been so long a time since we were able to breathe fresh air as a result of the air pollution coming from automobiles, factories, and trains. We experienced one of the worst weather this year. From heavy flooding to extreme heat, our world; our precious gift from God seems to be falling apart. It is not the time to fold our hands and do nothing, we need to act, we need to first change ourselves in order to reduce the effects of climate change.
One way to solve this problem is by drafting out policies that restrict and lowers the number of emissions coming from cars, factories, and our homes such as using renewable energy sources for power in homes, vehicles, and factories. Also, changing the structural design of our homes so that they are more climate-friendly. I believe by starting from this point we can reduce the effects of climate change. Thank you, Sir.
Yours sincerely,

Yes, commas are used for clauses that help to provide a fuller picture, even when not necessary. Dashes can be used for a similar purpose as they are used here, but i don't believe it's appropriate in this sentence. Parentheses can only be used for information that can be completely written off without having any effect on the sentence.
