Martin Luther King Jr. uses figurative language strategically throughout his letter to promote equality. How does the following instance help accomplish his purpose of challenging the church leaders to take action against racial injustice? In those days the Church was not merely a thermometer (strictly tells the temperature) that recorded the ideas and principles of popular opinion; it was a thermostat (changes the temperature) that transformed the mores of society. Respond in three to five complete sentences.

iight sooo would you want me to answer the question or tell you straight out what Martin is saying ...? because i can't answer the question literally for you, you feel?
ight, hit me with the answer straight up
This website is supposed to help, not tell the answer, however do you understand what Dr.King is saying?
H no I read that thang for about 3 hours trying to figure it out
U help me wit this I will give you a medal, but it has to be right u feel?
"h"? Okidokeee! welp Dr.King is saying that the Church had so much power/ influence for the people that it wouldn't matter what they said in a way, the people had faith that the Church was right. So when it came to racial prejudice, they were the body that pivoted people into thinking that the injustice was ok. I'm pretty sure that's what he's saying. Do you understand that?
Thanks bro, here's a medal.
Thanks man! good luck!
