MLK

Why does the author feel that whites owe King the greatest debt?
-Because he changed America from being hypocrical. They were saying that America is freedom land, but colored people faces segregation.

Was King "the right man at the right time"?
-Yes. 1)PREACHER
*he was precher so he spoke in biblical/preachy intonation
*Used biblical imagery(israelities/Jesus Christ)
*Church is the best way to reach/communicate with the black population
2)He had great physical courage-threats.


Would King be upset with the current use of his most often quoted line? Why or why not?
-Yea. It is used in way he would not "support"(endurse.) its use.(non-affirmative action. srps.
