The Birmingham Jail Letter is a letter that explains the controversy that arose when clergymen allegedly criticized Luther's entry into Birmingham. Luther King Jr wrote this letter to clergymen who had insinuated that the situation of racial discrimination was under the control of the administrators of the law and should not be subject to intervention by King and his group, the outsiders. The letter is published by Ashland University's American History Education Program and is dated the day and date the letter was written. The author's statement can be taken from his argument that I am here for organizational ties and because there is a lot of injustice here and I am here to restore and fight for human rights (The Atlantic Monthly, 79). The Birmingham Letter The prison seeks to respond to inquiries from the clergy about the king's presence in Birmingham. In the letter, the king explains to the clergy that he is in the city to restore reason and demand the rights of black people, to fight for democracy and respect for human rights for all. The clergy had criticized King Jr.'s activities as "untimely and imprudent," something King prioritized in his work and was made very clear in the letter (The Atlantic Monthly, 80).

He then gives a reason why he has...... middle of paper ......ls to achieve the objectives of the literature and related works. At the same time, the newspaper strives to realize the writer's strategic goal. It is very difficult to find a literal excerpt that meets almost all the criteria of writing in literature and expresses one's desire to achieve all of this (The Atlantic Monthly, 85). From the beginning of the letter, the king explains the motive or rather the reason why he is writing to the clergy and this constitutes the thesis of the letter. All arguments in the document relate directly to the thesis. It is simply an excellent document. The diary is not based on any emotion since since the king's retreat to respond to the letter, he has been calm and seemingly unconcerned by the clergy's statement.
