25 points! ! what famous people does martian luther mention in letter from birmingham jail? and why does he write them or include them?

The letter from Birmigham by Martin Luther King, was written on April 16th, 1963, from the jail in Brimingham, Alabama,where he was sent as he disobeyed a ruling against demonstrations, while he was campaigning under his nonviolent resistance philosophy to segregation.

Being initially addressed to the clergymen of Christian southern churches, the letter is a thorough response to criticisms regarding his methods. Following his essence, Luther King quotes numerous people along History, mainly to support his arguments, going from Jesus himself to Socrates, St. Paul, Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Aquinas that he quotes to express the message of hard resistance against what is unfair, against injustice.

On the other hand, he quotes Adolf Hitler, the KKK and the moderate white to demonstrate that the form of order and justice they conceived, might be similar in terms of stablishing an unbreakable status quo, but specially, because he wanted to demonstrate that something just because is legal, does not mean to be right. These citations have the intention to ascertain one point: one can just be passive when fighting injustice, and the nonviolent movement was completely rightful when creating a positive tension, this is, pressure on the people who refused to accept a simple premise: that all people are simply equal before justice and society,and this fight can not be postponed.

Finally,he included other relevant people from that time, among others, leaders, members of the Government and otherfigures who played a certain role in those events.

                the united states presidential election of 1912 was the 32nd quadrennial presidential election, held on tuesday, november 5, 1912. the election was a rare four-way contest.

                incumbent president william howard taft was renominated by the republican party with the support of its conservative wing. after former president theodore roosevelt failed to receive the republican nomination, he called his own convention and created the progressive party (nicknamed the "bull moose party"). it nominated roosevelt and ran candidates for other offices in major states. democrat woodrow wilson was finally nominated on the 46th ballot of a contentious convention, to the support of william jennings bryan, the three-time democratic presidential candidate who still had a large and loyal following in 1912. eugene v. debs, running for a fourth time, was the nominee of the socialist party of america.

                wilson won the election, gaining a large majority in the electoral college and winning 42% of the popular vote, while roosevelt won 27%, taft 23% and debs 6%. wilson became the only elected president from the democratic party between 1892 and 1932, and the second of only two democrats to be elected president between 1860 and 1932. this was the last election in which a candidate who was not a republican or democrat came second in either the popular vote or the electoral college, and the first election in which all 48 states of the contiguous united states participated.

hope this !
