金恩從伯明罕 (Birmingham) 監獄寄出的信 King's Letter from a Birmingham Jail

因為黑人長期以來都受到不平等待遇,金恩認為大家不應再等待、應該立即改變現狀。

身為上帝的子民,金恩堅持以非暴力的手段進行抗議,他也相信暴力會破壞得以改變的好時機;金恩和其他抗議者都不惜為了公民權而入獄服刑。

Because black people had suffered injustice for so long, King believed they should not have to wait any longer for change.

King believed nonviolence was essential for him as a man of God. He also believed that violence would ruin the chances for change. King and others were willing to go to jail for the cause of civil rights.
