Letter from Birmingham Jail

The language of this letter I find to be completely jaw-dropping in all aspects of it.  The fact that M. L. King Jr., maintains as much composure as he does while writing this letter I find it extremely inspiring.  The thing I love about this letter is the second paragraph on the second page, when he talks about trying to explain to children segregation.  Not only the imagery, but the overall tone that he sets within this speech is quite amazing.  His complaint on how the white moderate is their biggest enemy, the moment in trying to explain their day to day struggle and the pitch; in which he tells them that these strikes will continue until the people have gotten rid of their discontent.  It leaves goose bumps.

Sentences of The Declaration of Independence

Simple:  He has refused his Assent to Laws, The most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
Compound:  He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with many firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
Complex:  He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend them.
Compound/Complex:  When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
