You express a great deal of anxiety over our willingness to break laws. This is certainly a legitimate concern. Since we so diligently urge people to obey the Supreme Court’s decision of 1954 outlawing segregation in the public schools, at first glance it may seem rather paradoxical for us consciously to break laws. One may want to ask: "How can you advocate breaking some laws and obeying others?" The answer lies in the fact that there are two types of laws: just and unjust. I would be the first to advocate obeying just laws. One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that "an unjust law is no law at all."… — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., "Letter from Birmingham Jail," April 16, 1963 3. Which type of action against unjust laws is Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. supporting in this passage?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Civil Disobedience

Explanation:

According to the given excerpt from "Letter from Birmingham Jail", Martin Luther King expresses his opinion about what he calls just and unjust laws and how he would obey the just laws, but disobey the unjust ones, because they are "no law at all".

Therefore, the type of action against unjust laws is Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. supporting in this passage is civil disobedience.

This is because, civil disobedience simply means defiance to authority or laws.

Read the following excerpt from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "Letter from Birmingham," then answer the question.

"I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and willingly accepts the penalty by staying in jail to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the very highest respect for law.

We can never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was 'legal' and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was 'illegal.' It was 'illegal' to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler's Germany. But I am sure that, if I had lived in Germany during that time, I would have aided and comforted my Jewish brothers even though it was illegal. If I lived in a communist country today where certain principles dear to the Christian faith are suppressed, I believe I would openly advocate disobeying these anti-religious laws."

This event was significant because it began with the dispute over who was the rightful heir to the England throne. Two men named William the Conqueror and Harold Godwinson were the instigators of this battle. Edward the Confessor, the prior king to England, had proclaimed both men to be the next heir. In a town 7 miles away of Hastings, this battle began on October 14, 1066 and ran the course of only a day. William, also known for being the Duke of Normandy, claimed victory in the death of Harold. He became the King 10 weeks later and changed the history by the initiation of his own conquest of the country.In the Bayeux Tapestry itself. the artwork depicts many different animals, boats, and the interaction of people with this environment. For example, there is a man pulling a horse-like creature by a harness. The men on the boats are working together to situate the sails.
