NO its not c try again. You can eliminate c and d.

Hoodmemes · Answer

Not really as we all should know Martin was against violent,and his speech was to reduce that violencenot to persuade it in any type of way.

With that being said I'd say cross off answer options C and D since they are negative and don't even make sense with what I just said,this leaves answer options  A and B which do u think is correct and why?
