Claim:

    1. “Moreover, I am cognizant of the interrelatedness of all communities and states” (King 83).

               The verb of the sentence is am, but I think the use of the adjective cognizant in conjunction with the verb am is a very compelling way for him to state his claim in this situation rather than choosing a simpler combination of verb and adjective in this situation.

    2. “You deplore the demonstrations taking place in Birmingham” (King 83).

Agreement:

1. “We must come to see that, as the federal courts have consistently affirmed, it is wrong to urge an individual to cease his efforts to gain his basic constitutional rights because the quest may precipitate violence” (King 91).

2. ” In no sense do I advocate evading or defying the law, as would the rabid segregationist” (King 88).

Disagreement:

 ”In your statement you assert (1) that our actions, even though peaceful, must be condemned (2)because they precipitated (3) violence” (King 90).

Recommendation:

1. “Thus it is that I can urge men to obey the 1954 decision of the Supreme Court, for it is morally right; and I can urge to to disobey segregation ordinances, for they are morally wrong” (King 88).

2. ” I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for law” (King 88-9).

My Paragraph:

Parents have a responsibility to make effective life decisions for their young children; decisions that will steer them towards success and happiness, as corny as it might sound.  As a parent, you have the opportunity to enroll your child into a variety of programs or organizations that are meant to broaden their horizons and foster friendships and personal growth.  Getting your child involved in community programs can be equated to insuring their future is full of taken opportunities and inimitable life experiences.   Many times the first place parents gravitate towards is the Girl Scouts/ Boy Scouts of America, overlooking other organizations, such as 4-H, that may just be the superior option. While each organization has its own strengths and weaknesses that should be considered when determining which program would best serve your child and family, I am a firm believer that 4-H has the most to offer its participants.
