-->Martin Luther King Jr.
-Life of oppressed; they adjust by being silent
-To accept passively is unjust
-Religion reminds everyone of their rights; moral ways
-Can adjust by being violent
-Violence never brings permant peace; it solves no social problems but creates new
-Violence to achieve racial justice is impractical and immoral (emphasizes hate rather -than love); seeks to humiliate opponent rather than win his understanding
-Violence ends up by defeating itself; creates bitterness
-Or, to adjust, nonviolent resistance; reconcile truths of two opposites
-With nonviolent resistance, no individual or group need submit to any wrong, nor resort to violence in order to right a wrong
-Not black vs. white but justice vs. injustice
