Answer:

“Choice: A Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.” by Alice Walker was about southerners' choices. Many who had to flee the south to survive. Many people did not choose this, but Martin Luther King Jr. demonstrated that there is always a choice when he showed resistance when arrested. That people have options and do not have to live with the pain they once felt. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s decision restored many people's heritage, land, and homes. Dr. King "gave us back our homeland," says Walker.
