N this excerpt, why did Martin Luther King, Jr. provide this example?
“Perhaps it is easy for those who have never felt the stinging darts of segregation to say, ‘Wait.’ But . . . when you suddenly find your tongue twisted and your speech stammering as you seek to explain to your six year old daughter why she can't go to the public amusement park that has just been advertised on television, and see tears welling up in her eyes when she is told that Funtown is closed to colored children, . . . then you will understand why we find it difficult to wait.”
