Explain why you felt the passage was significant, and, if Gandhi would have agreed or disagreed with the thought reflected through the passage.]]> 2021-01-04 16:58:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kurt8/ghuay2z7cp07/wish/1052683814 cludwig_ug https://padlet.com/kurt8/ghuay2z7cp07/wish/1060310405 “ I have tried to stand between these two forces, saying that we need emulate neither the "do nothingism" of the complacent nor the hatred and despair of the black nationalist. For there is the more excellent way of love and nonviolent protest. I am grateful to God that, through the influence of the Negro church, the way of nonviolence became an integral part of our struggle. “]]> 2021-01-06 17:30:22 UTC https://padlet.com/kurt8/ghuay2z7cp07/wish/1060310405 zachnelson2366 https://padlet.com/kurt8/ghuay2z7cp07/wish/1060371175 "Sometimes a law is just on its face and unjust in its application." I found this passage to be important because it is an overall theme of civil disobedience. I think Ghandi would agree with this though he was more focused on laws that were blatantly wrong. I think both leaders would agree that civil disobedience is working to fix laws not to create lawlessness. ]]> 2021-01-06 17:43:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kurt8/ghuay2z7cp07/wish/1060371175 https://padlet.com/kurt8/ghuay2z7cp07/wish/1060465019 "We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed." I think that passage speaks for itself when it says it must be demanded by the oppressed.]]> 2021-01-06 18:03:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kurt8/ghuay2z7cp07/wish/1060465019 https://padlet.com/kurt8/ghuay2z7cp07/wish/1060497788 “We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed. Frankly, I have yet to engage in a direct action campaign that was "well timed" in the view of those who have not suffered unduly from the disease of segregation. For years now I have heard the word "Wait!" It rings in the ear of every Negro with piercing familiarity. This "Wait" has almost always meant "Never." We must come to see, with one of our distinguished jurists, that "justice too long delayed is justice denied."]]> 2021-01-06 18:11:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kurt8/ghuay2z7cp07/wish/1060497788
