Question

Complete the following sentence.

Answer 1

Answer:The Letter from Birmingham Jail or Letter from Birmingham City Jail was an open letter written on April 16, 1963 by Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the leaders of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. . King wrote the letter from the Birmingham City Jail in Alabama, where he was being held after a non-violent protest against racial segregation. The letter is a response to a statement issued by eight white Alabama clergy on April 12, 1963 entitled "A Call For Unity." In it they declared the existence of social injustices but expressed the belief that the battle against racial segregation should only take place in the courts and not take them to the streets. King responded that without strong direct action, such as his, true civil rights could never be achieved. As he said "This 'Wait' has almost always meant 'Never'." It established not only that civil disobedience was justified in the face of unjust laws, but that "one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws."

The letter was originally published as a "Letter from Birmingham Jail" in the June 12, 1963 issue of The Christian Century .1

The letter includes a frequently used quote: "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere," as well as the words quoted by King from Thurgood Marshall: "[Justice] too delayed is justice denied."
