In this excerpt, the word tension means discomfort. Dr. King is saying that a certain level of discomfort is necessary for growth as a country. The group(s) that have been oppressing the black community are to expect nothing short of discomfort. Facing difficult emotions is the only way that we, as a community, can make any sort of change.

How did william I change england, and what can you infer about the impact of that change among the people of england.​
liq [111]
He changed England in a lot of ways, but I would probably say the Feudal system is one of the most dramatic changes. This would have impacted the people of England as the more poor became pedants at the lowest rank in society, being controlled by those above them. The majority of England weren’t
rich, and most of the higher rankings were Williams own people. - hope this helps a bit
