What tone does Martin Luther King, Jr. create through his choice of words in the following portion of his Nobel Prize acceptance

speech?
I accept the Nobel Prize for Peace at a moment when 22 million Negroes of the United States of America are engaged in a creative battle to end the long night of racial injustice, I accept this award on behalf of a civil rights movement which is moving with determination and a majestic scorn for risk and danger to establish a reign of freedom and a rule of justice. I am mindful that only yesterday in Birmingham, Alabama, our children, crying out for brotherhood, were answered with fire hoses, snarling dogs and even death. I am mindful that only yesterday in Philadelphia, Mississippi, young people seeking to secure the right to vote were brutalized and murdered. And only yesterday more than 40 houses of worship in the State of Mississippi alone were bombed or burned because they offered a sanctuary to those who would not accept segregation. I am mindful that debilitating and grinding poverty afflicts my people and chains them to the lowest rung of the economic ladder.

Through his word choice, Martin Luther king, Jr. communicates great indignation in the face of a series of criminal events marked by ratial injustice ocurring recently before his Nobel Prize acceptance speech in 1964.

Being only the 2nd African American to receive the award, such a moment came with the unique chance to augment visibility  of the hardship undergone by the negro pupulation to have their civil rights recognized all across the union.

Martin Luther King, Jr. was the loudest voice of his time to denounce the crimes committed against participants of a purely non-violent civil rights movement against ratial segregation.

Explain activities you and ur friend spend the day essay​
kupik [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

After a long stressful test, I was going to spend the day with my best friend, Katherine, for the first time after, so long now that her mom trusted me more. “Honk!’’ was the sound I heard that signaled me that Katherine’s dad was here. She opened the door, as usual because she was so courteous to me at school. I got into the rusty gray Honda. Once I got into the car I knew it was out of my comfort zone because it was my first time meeting Katherine’s Dad outside of school. “Hello, Katherine 's dad,” I said tentatively. He responded back with a simple hello and simply resumed his talk with Katherine as if she had never left the car. They were talking, so quick I had no idea what to do, so I kept quiet the whole car ride and looked out the window. The whole car ride was of a foreign language I had barely heard Katherine speak at school, when her mom, my 5th grade math teacher came around. Now as if she had been liberated from those chains that kept her from speaking her native language, she spoke endlessly with her dad. We arrived at our destination and to my surprise, it was a church.

I had never my life been to church on a Saturday afternoon, most likely because my mom and I only had time to come to church on Sunday´s.So many things were happening at the same time in the same room where Katherine’s dad left us. This was one of the best journey and I will always cherish it in my memories.

From “How It Feels to Be Colored Me”
Zolol [24]

Answer: C.  an exchange of dialogue between the speaker and the visitors.

Explanation:

In the second paragraph of this essay by Zora Hurston, we learn how the residents of Zora's Black American town of Eaton, Florida, treated Southern whites who passed through with indifference but treated the Northerners with awe and excitement.

A development to this paragraph would be an exchange between the speaker and the visitors so that we may better understand the awe and excitement that the Northern whites were greeted with.
