Multiple Notes.

*Ballad of Birmingham- Dudley Randell
*About the bridge being blown up.

*Stride Toward Freedom- Martin Luther King Jr.
*Oppressed people deal by:
1.acquiescence: resign themselves to doom
*cowardly & not moral
2.physical violence or corroding hatred
*momentary results; eye for an eye leaves everyone blind
3.nonviolent resistance
*meets in the middle of the first two.

*Necessary to Protest Ourselves- Malcolm X
*believes you can't grow without criticism.
*if the law doesn't protect you, protect yourself.
*he respects the law & government, but says the question is does it respect you.
*he sees his acts of protection are human reactions that will gain respect for them.
