Answer 10

LFBJ is King's response to a letter published in the local paper known as "A Call For Unity". Local clergy criticized King and labeled him extremist in the published letter.
King's response is a masterpiece in American rhetoric. He goes through a logical response to each point. His over all tone is polite. At the end he dramicly shifts tone and shifts from straight logic to appeal to the pathos of the situation.
After building the logical case justifiying his actions, he is able to shift to an appeal to the clergyment to join him.
