8. Re-read paragraphs 27-30. How does King respond to

History
1 answer:
Nuetrik [128]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

At first King reasons in the letter that he is not of the extremists, he is actually between two extremes in the black community of militant black nationalism and complacency with the status quo. His use of the word extremist adds to the critical tone of the text as he is speaking directly to the clergy who called him extremist and he criticizes all white moderates.

Explanation:

Martin Luther King is turning the tables with his use of the word extremist because it was a label the white moderates applied to him and his followers. First he shows in paragraph 27 that he is not the extremist, that the black Nationalists are the more extreme dissenters who do advocate violence and reject the white population.  In the end King says that even Jesus Christ was an extremist and he was charged and punished for it with the extreme act of crucifixion.  King says also evokes Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson as extreme in their ideas and says there is actually a need for “creative extremism” to progress towards civil rights and social justice.

What was the job of the constitutional convention?
zhenek [66]
Although the Convention was intended to revise the Articles of Confederation, the intention from the outset of many of its proponents, chief among them James Madison and Alexander Hamilton, was to create a new government rather than fix the existing one. The delegates elected George Washington to preside over the Convention. The result of the Convention was the creation of the United States Constitution, placing the Convention among the most significant events in the history of the United States.

Which of the following led directly to the fall of the Soviet Union?
Gnom [1K]

<u>Answer:</u>

Too much spending on the military led directly to the fall of the Soviet Union.

Option: (C)

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • The 'Soviet Union' was much involved in producing goods that were not at all in demand.
  • On the other hand, whatever GDP growth they could achieve from such unintelligent economic activities, most of it was being spent on the upgrading of military might.
  • Negligible to none spendings were being made on providing welfare facilities to the public.
  • This fanned a popular outcry against the government and led to the fall of the 'Soviet Union'.
