Question

I have travelled the length and breadth of Alabama, Mississippi and all the other southern states. On sweltering summer days and crisp autumn mornings I have looked at her beautiful churches with their spires pointing heavenward. I have beheld the impressive outlay of her massive religious education buildings. Over and over again I have found myself asking: "Who worships here? Who is their God? Where were their voices when the lips of Governor Barnett dripped with words of interposition and nullification? Where were their voices of support when tired, bruised, and weary Negro men and women decided to rise from the dark dungeons of complacency to the bright hills of creative protest?" PART A: What is the purpose of Paragraph 9 of the passage? To cause southern church leaders to reflect on their lack of action. To encourage others to visit southern states and churches. To lobby for the removal of Governor Barnett from state office. To describe the religious and moral practices of southern churches.

Answer 1
