Letter from Birmingham Jail

At first i thought this was just going to be another boring story about Martin Luther King jr. rambling on about civil rights that you just had to read in middle school. About halfway through the first page it hooked me and he started using a lot of analogies relating to many different things. He began to use a lot of emotions from the beginning and it started when he talked about how if you were in a black person's position you wouldn't be able to tell your daughter why white people hate black people or why she could not even go outside. This really connects to the parents as well as the teenagers because they will soon have to raise kids of their own. The next huge factor to this letter was the logical and this was evident in the fact that he would basically admit that he was wrong but at the same time he would persecute the court for what they were doing. An example is when he admits that he does not like the "white moderner" at all and society has made them into devils. This is logic because he admits what he is thinking and also refers to the community and the judges. The last big contributor to this letter that makes it unique was the ethical appeal to the story. This was used very cleverly through the fact of describing what the black people had to go through as well as other people from different countries. It was amazing what the African Americans had to do just to get a little bit of freedom or even walk into a diner. This was an amazing outlook from an African American especially Martin Luther King and show us how he was feeling.
