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.

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

I believe it’s D

Explanation:

The stock market crash followed a speculative boom that had taken hold in the late 1920s. During the later half of the 1920s, steel production, building construction, retail turnover, automobiles registered, even railway receipts advanced from record to record. The combined net profits of 536 manufacturing and trading companies showed an increase, in fact for the first six months of 1929, of 36.6% over 1928, itself a record half-year. Iron and steel led the way with doubled gains. Such figures set up a crescendo of stock-exchange speculation which had led hundreds of thousands of Americans to invest heavily in the stock market. A significant number of them were borrowing money to buy more stocks. There was an initial stock market crash that triggered a "panic sell-off" of assets. This was followed by a deflation in asset and commodity prices, dramatic drops in demand and credit, and disruption of trade, ultimately resulting in widespread unemployment (over 13 million people were unemployed by 1932) and impoverishment.

In what ways did the war become a symbol of liberty?
Mrrafil [7]
For the United States, the pursuit of freedom was born from its origins, and has a lot of relation to the war, taking examples that the Americans fought since the Independence of the 13 Colonies, later fought the American civil war, and finally the most important world war, World War II. For the history of the United States, freedom has been obtained through war with different powers and between the same country, to liberate America from slavery. Many of today's US bellicose interventions have been to liberate areas considered oppressed or dangerous, and although this is highly debatable globally, such actions have been pursued seeking freedom.
