Reynolds says that Dr. King's nonviolent tactics were "embarrassing the country" because he felt that they didn't do enough especially when you consider what the racists were doing to them. Despite the nonviolent and peaceful approach that Black people were taking White supremacists still responded with violence and when Dr. King continued to not fight back and let it happen this is what "embarrassed the country." People like Malcom X believed that if they were dealing with violence they should fight back with violence and take authority rather than constantly being beat down. He wanted power for his people and thought that Dr. Kings tactics weren't enough.
