Analyze the connection MLK makes between the Emancipation Proclamation and the current situation African Americans were experien
Colt1911 [192]

Martin Luther King makes the point that 100 years after slaves were freed by the Emancipation Proclamation, they are not truly free due to continued segregation.

The entire point that Martin Luther King makes in his speech is that African Americans are still not truly free because of segregation. He continues this idea that America did not live up to the promises made by Lincoln in the Emancipation Proclamation when he uses the extended metaphor of a check for the promises that were made. The other options are simply incorrect. While MLK does refer to slavery, he knows that the original form of slavery has ended so he is not asking for freedom from slavery, but rather from segregation. MLK does not thing life was going very well for African Americans, and he doesn't express extreme anger towards Abraham Lincoln.

What are 3 things that happen in the book just mercy?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Certain groups are disproportionately affected by mass incarceration, Mass incarceration is a recent and current phenomenon, The road to justice is (really) long (Extra: Justice is not the only approach to the problem)

Explanation:

Certain groups are disproportionately affected by mass incarceration

Stevenson describes how African Americans, the poor, the mentally ill, youth, veterans and other groups suffer in large numbers from mass incarceration. For example, over 50 percent of US inmates have a diagnosed mental illness. The most vulnerable in our society are especially susceptible to mass incarceration.

Mass incarceration is a recent and current phenomenon

Stevenson describes how drug policies in the 1980’s, deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill and other factors have contributed to the huge increase in the incarcerated population over the past half-century. While racial injustice has always been an American problem, mass incarceration is modern. Stevenson describes mass incarceration as the last of four institutions that have shaped America’s approach to race and justice. The other three institutions are slavery, domestic terror and convict leasing from Reconstruction to World War II, and the Jim Crow era.

The road to justice is (really) long

While reading Just Mercy, I was continually reminded of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s quote, “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.” Stevenson often worked for years to free a client, spending hundreds of hours on one case. This isn’t the flashy, feel-good, efficient altruistic work that one feels comfortable reading about. Rather, it was incredibly uncomfortable to read about the hurdles that Stevenson faced to free McMillian. However, through a lifetime of this work at the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI), Stevenson has won relief for hundreds of people who were wrongly convicted or unfairly sentenced.

Justice is not the only approach to the problem

Because the problem of mass incarceration can be traced back to racial inequality, misguided drug policy, excessive sentencing and other causes, Stevenson describes how its solutions must also be multi-faceted. That’s why EJI focuses not only on criminal justice reform, but also on racial justice and public education. Ultimately, Stevenson describes how representing his clients and learning about them and their stories has taught him to understand his own brokenness and the need for mercy.

These four lessons are just the highlights of what I learned. If you are interested in justice, race or police misconduct, Just Mercy is an invaluable resource to learn more.
