Answer:

True

Explanation:

Martin Luther King was arrested and jailed in April 1963 after he led a group of black protesters who were against white segregation and who wanted a boycott of white stores during the Easter period. While in the Birmingham jail, he wrote a letter that was directed to the clergymen who described his activities as untimely and unwise. He felt they deserved a response because he thought they were men of genuine goodwill.

The 7000 words letter was a call for 'constructive, non-violent tensions' that would lead to the end of unjust laws that did not favor everyone. This letter was useful in setting the pace for a renewed civil rights movement.
