Read the excerpt from Dr. Martin Luther King’s “Letter from Birmingham Jail.” The other force is one of bitterness and hatred, and it comes perilously close to advocating violence. It is expressed in the various black nationalist groups that are springing up across the nation. Why does the author include these sentences?

The author includes the sentences above in the letter to explain that there is a more peaceful way to solve the inequality problem. Marthin Luther King, Jr. described the bitterness and hatred as the same act as the violence. Therefore, he suggested people solve the problem by doing another way other than bitterness and hatred.
