Read the excerpt from dr. martin luther king’s “letter from birmingham jail.” frankly, i have yet to engage in a direct action campaign that was "well timed" in the view of those who have not suffered unduly from the disease of segregation. what is the author’s purpose for including this sentence? to establish the suffering experienced under segregation to define the concept of a direct action campaign to criticize the public officials who endorse segregation to explain his unwillingness to postpone his efforts

Dr. Martin Luther King added that sentence because he feels that his message is not getting through to people that has not experienced seggregation in the U.S. When he says that his direct action campaign is not well timed, he knows that to his detractors, his message will never be one of peace and inclusion. To them, no direct action coming from him will never be "well timed"

the correct answer is D.to explain his unwillingness to postpone his efforts.

i took the test and this is correct. :)

what are the question answer options?
