Letter from Birmingham
Letter From Birmingham Martin Luther King Jr.’s “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” was very persuasive to a variety of audiences. ... These examples give him credibility as an intelligent man when he cites from history without the use of history books. Martin Luther King Jr directed his letter to the white clergyman of Birmingham, in a response to their newspaper article criticizing him for his actions. At the beginning, King states that he is in Birmingham for three reasons: he was invited, he had “organizational ties,” and finally because of the injustice that was in Birmingham.
