Answer:

{I don't think that it}

Explanation:

In the phrase above , Malcolm X indicates an opinion. First, he uses the first person singular :"I". Then, he uses a verb of opinon: "think". He uses a non assertive sentence since he wants to show his disagreement with the fact that there are leaders who do not like being criticised. Malcol X thinks that if the leaders do not accept criticism, they are not gronw ups. The "it" he uses in his phrase refers to not accepting criticism.

1. Which claim is King making most clearly in paragraphs 13 and 14?

Liula [17]

In his letter, King states that many people must believe that blacks should wait for civil rights to be offered to them and not protest to speed up this process. However, King shows that racism is too violent for people to wait patiently for its end.

Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Although you haven't shown it, we can see from the context that his question refers to "Letter From Birmingham Jail" written by Martin Luther King.

This letter was written when King was in prison for leading peaceful protests calling for the liberation of civil rights for African Americans.

While reading paragraphs 13 and 14 of this letter, we can see that:

King reinforces the idea that the protests must continue until civil rights are released.
He claims that many white people find this overkill and that blacks should patiently wait for these rights to be offered.
King says that the wait would be a good option if racism were not something violent, dangerous, brutal, and deadly.
King claims that civil rights would protect blacks from racism, which is something blacks can no longer stand and which harms them every day and every moment.

With that, he reinforces that blacks are in a hurry to obtain civil rights because they are in a hurry to get rid of racism and for that reason, protests are important.
