Answer:

B)the fallacy of logos in deductive reasoning

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a fallacy because it makes a wrong deduction from the presented premise. Martin Luther King is an African-American and African Americans live in a democracy. You can say that Martin Luther King lives in a democracy, but there's nothing in the premise about deserving. Maybe he has the rights and doesn't deserve them.
