Answer:

D. George Washington and Ben Franklin.

Explanation:

Martin Luther King wrote his "Letters from Birmingham Jail" as an open letter defending the acts of non violent protests and resistance against racism in America. The letter justifies the acts of the people protesting against any unjust laws that clashed with their moral responsibility and make life miserable for them.

The letter also alludes to various famous thinkers such as <em>Mahatma Gandhi</em>, the leader of the Indian Independence movement and the inventor of non-violent forms of resistance. He also mentions famous Christian theologian <em>St. Thomas Aquinas, Paul Tillich, St. Paul and T. S. Eliot</em>, <em>Martin Buber </em>and even the famous<em> Socrates</em>. In the letter, he justifies the actions of the protesters in their resistance and acting at once instead of waiting for someone to come to their aid. He did not mention George Washington and Benjamin Franklin.
