Answer these questions over "LfBJ" by tomorrow:
1. What are King’s reasons for being in Birmingham?
2. How does King answer to the charge of being an outsider?
3. “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny.” What does this mean for individuals who have ignored the issues of Birmingham? What does this mean today for each of us living in the United States?
4. What are the four basic steps of nonviolent direct action? For each of the steps state the example in Birmingham. Can you think of another example of nonviolent protest which followed these steps?
5. Look over paragraphs 7-9. Why did King and others decide to delay their actions?
6. In paragraph 10, what does King mean by “constructive, nonviolent tension” and how does he define its goal?
7. Paragraph 13 is one of King’s most well-known statements. Choose an historical example which illustrates the point that “justice too long delayed is justice denied.”
8. Choose three injustices from paragraph 14 to compare to the Bill of Rights and/or the UDHR.
9. In paragraphs 15-17, King describes two types of law. How does he define each? Can you give other examples of unjust laws today?
