qaws [65]

Answer:

c. To suggest the moral significance of his cause.

Explanation:

Martin Luther King's written letter while in prison "Letters From Birmingham Jail" is an open letter defending the ways of non-violently resisting the racial prejudice faced by the black people. This letter also showcased King's approach of the civil movement that presses for the rights of the African American people.

In his letter, Martin Luther King uses a lot of references to history, biblical references and even present day scenes to present his ideals and hopes, to give a better image of his purpose. He also included the allusion to the crucifixion of the two other men alongside Jesus in Calvary. This allusion to the crucifixion is a means to try to signify the moral importance and need for the said resistance movement.
