Answer:

He is described as “a thin young man with a brown face, with brown eyes and a head of tightly curled hair” which is why he is called Curley. Curley is described as dressing in a somewhat aristocratic way, as if to separate himself from the lowly ranch hands. The glove is to keep his hand soft for his wife. Curley is the boss's son, and because his father only appears once, Curley is the main representative in the novella of the land-owning class. When this revenge plan fails and he loses face, Curley picks a fight with the vulnerable Lennie to reassert his status.

I have a dream Which detail from the text best supports the answer to Part A?

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

"In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.”

Explanation:

This question is not full as it is missing the options and the answer to part A.

Answer to the first part is:

"King believes that African Americans should not be denied their civil rights, and encourages others to be relentless in their non-violent fight for freedom."

The options to this question are as following:

“But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.”
“In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.”
“I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations. Some of you have come fresh from narrow jail cells.”
“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

The detail that best supports the statement in the part A answer is 

2. "In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.”

With this statement, King says they deserve the right place, civil rights, and equality, but that they should not take the violent measures or, as he called them, "wrongful deeds".

He wants to say that returning force with the force will not be good for the movement as it will only spread and continue the hate.

He wants to fight for the civil rights of African-Americans peacefully, without spreading more blood and hate.
