A) Situational irony is used to highlight the disparity between the expected results of the Emancipation Proclamation and actual results.
Explanation:
Situational irony is used to highlight the disparity between the the expected results of the Emancipation Proclamation and actual results. In this example, situational irony is the result of an action that is contrary to the expected effect.

Clearly, Dr. King believes the result is contrary to what was expected.
