"Letter from a Birmingham Jail [King, Jr.]" 16 April 1963 My Dear Fellow Clergymen: While confined here in the Birmingham city jail, I came across your recent statement calling my present activities "unwise and untimely."

But since I feel that you are men of genuine good will and that your criticisms are sincerely set forth, I want to try to answer your statement in what I hope will be patient and reasonable terms.

FRQ Annie Hawkins p. 1 The 1950s in the US is a time that has been painted over with images of the American dream and disguised in nostalgia as a time when everyone fit the roles that society gave to them- the docile and hardworking housewife, the obedient children, the happy businessman husband, all of them white, content, and living in a carbon copied house with a white picket fence.
