Martin Luther King's efforts were inspired by Thoreau's definition of Civil Obedience being his words an extension of Thoreau's in his text. Both of them went to jail under a law that they resisted to, which is a form of peaceful political protest. In the Thoreau's "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" we get the same message that we get from King's letter:
"<em>Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison</em>."
<em> (...) It is there that the fugitive slave, and the Mexican prisoner on parole, and the Indian come to plead the wrongs of his race, should find them; on that separate, but more free and honorable ground, where the State places those who are not with her but against her,—the only house in a slave-state in which a free man can abide with honor.</em> <em>If any think that their influence would be lost there, and their voices no longer afflict the ear of the State, that they would not be as an enemy within its walls, they do not know by how much truth is stronger than error, nor how much more eloquently and effectively he can combat injustice who has experienced a little in his own person."</em>
<em> </em> The excerpt above it's similar to Luther King's because it shows that even from jail, the one who find a law to be unjust and suffers it's penalty, is able to show society how unjust this law is, this attitude may change the law quicker , as many just men suffers from it.
Answer:
Gandhi used the phrase<em> "mad risk"</em> in<em> Line 47</em> because he was planning to start a "non-violence" protest (civil disobedience) regarding the issue about <em>"salt tax."</em> "Non-violence" protest<u> doesn't have a clear efficacy</u> when it comes to creating change. So, <em>this makes the risk a mad one</em>. However, Gandhi believes in it as he said, <em>"Having an unquestioning and immovable faith in the efficacy of non-violence..." </em>
Explanation:
Gandhi wrote a letter to the Viceroy in order to let him know that the<em> "salt tax" </em>was unfair to the people of India. On behalf of the Indian people, Gandhi wanted the Viceroy to know that if he doesn't do anything to stop the salt tax, Gandhi, his followers and other people will be doing a non-violent protest in order<em> to resist the tax</em> and<em> the monopoly of the British people on the Indian salt. </em>
The "Salt March" was a long march which lasted <em>24 days.</em> It was a 10-mile daily march towards Dandi. At the end of the march, Gandhi pinched a salt from the shoreline.
To be honest, I think it might possibly be the third option. I hope this helps.
