What is Martin Luther King, Jr.'s purpose in the 5th paragraph?


You deplore the demonstrations taking place in Birmingham. But your statement, I am sorry to say, fails to express a similar concern for the conditions that brought about the demonstrations. I am sure that none of you would want to rest content with the superficial kind of social analysis that deals merely with effects and does not grapple with underlying causes. It is unfortunate that demonstrations are taking place in Birmingham, but it is even more unfortunate that the city's white power structure left the Negro community with no alternative.

Answer:

D) Martin Luther King, Jr. is attempting to convey the importance of understanding and repairing the cause of the demonstrations.

Explanation:

King goes to extraordinary length to introduce himself as a morally solid figure. It is one of the basic stages on which his contention is based.

With his continuous references to past moral figures, his unassuming tone, his non-accusing way, his broad and firsthand information of bigotry, also his own religious foundation, King seems to be epitomizing moral backbone.
