Answer:

The correct answer is D. In writing the Letter from Birmingham Jail, King sought to respond to the criticism he received from people that he considered be colleagues by methodically addressing each of their claims for Americans

Explanation:

The Letter from Birmingham Jail was an open letter written on April 16, 1963 by Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the leaders of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. King wrote the letter from the prison in the city of Birmingham, Alabama, where he was being held after a non-violent protest against racial segregation. The letter was a response to a statement issued by eight white clergy members of Alabama on April 12, 1963 entitled "A Call to Unity." In it, they declared the existence of social injustices but expressed the belief that the battle against racial segregation should be carried out only in the courts and not carried to the streets. King responded that without strong direct action, true civil rights could never be achieved. He stated not only that civil disobedience was justified in the face of unjust laws, but that "one has the moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws."

What is the meaning an essay
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

An essay is, generally, a piece of writing that gives the author's own argument, but the definition is vague, overlapping with those of a letter, a paper, an article, a pamphlet, and a short story. Essays have traditionally been sub-classified as formal and informal. Formal essays are characterized by "serious purpose, dignity, logical organization, length," whereas the informal essay is characterized by "the personal element (self-revelation, individual tastes and experiences, confidential manner), humor, graceful style, rambling structure, unconventionality or novelty of theme," etc.

who says the following and why? "[y]ou must be a fool, stranger, or come from nowhere, telling me to fear the gods or avoid thei
Yanka [14]
I believe that the most fitting answer for this question would be Polyphemus, the Cyclops. This is important because Polyphemus is disregarding the imporance of hospitality and obeying the gods; he says he does not care. He does not fear the gods' wrath and says that Cyclops are stronger and better, which is a dangerous thing to say, as it could incur the gods' wrath. Hope this helps.
