The Articles of Confederation set up the first government in the United States and went into effect in 1781. Under the Articles,

there was a legislative branch made up of a single house, and each state in the Union was given one vote. This government was very weak because the national government had to share a great deal of power with the states. The government had no authority to tax and could not control trade between the states. In 1787, delegates gathered in Philadelphia in order to come up with a new form of government to replace the Articles of Confederation. They drafted the Constitution, which would create a stronger central government with power divided among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. They created a system of checks and balances to limit the power of each branch. In the legislative branch, they created one house in which representation was based on a state's population and one house in which each state had equal representation. The author of the passage above would most likely agree with which of the following statements? A. The best way to organize a government is to have one house make up the legislature. B. The central government was stronger under the Articles than the Constitution. C. The government set up by the Articles of Confederation was not effective. D. The legislative branch should have more power than the executive branch.

Summary of Martin Luther King message from jail
postnew [5]

Answer:

Dr. Martin Luther King junior wrote the Letter from the Birmingham Jail in 1963, in response to white clergymen who had criticized his views and his activism as extremist.

Explanation:

MLK wrote an impassioned response to the clergy who were criticizing his activism at the time. The white clergy felt it was better for black Americans to just accept the status quo and to stop pressing for change. The clergy called MLK's actions "unwise and untimely." He first tries to counter the notion that his position is extreme in the letter by describing black nationalism and some of the extreme propositions of that movement and he also contrasts his perspective from being passive and accepting of the status quo. He has dedicated himself to trying to advance constructive change using non-violence. But as he develops his letter he starts to embrace the notion of being called an extremist because it may be necessary to take an extreme position in order to advance real change.  Since MLK was a church leader and he is addressing the critique of fellow clergymen, there are a lot of religious examples used in the letter.
