PLEASE HELP. (60 points) Martin Luther King Junior uses figurative language strategically throughout his letter to promote equality how does the following instant help accomplish his purpose of challenging the church leaders to take action against racial injustice?

“Like a boil that could never be cured as long as it is covered up but must be open with all of its pus flowing ugliness To the natural medicines of air and light, injustice must likewise be exposed, with all of the tension it’s exposing creates to the light of human conscience and the air of national opinion before it can be cured.”

Martin Luther King uses the image of a festering boil in order to convince the church of the need to bring the injustice of racism to light. Perhaps the most important aspect of the metaphor, along with the ugliness and toxicity of both a boil and racism, is the fact that to open a boil is a painful and scary process. Just as it is easier in the short term to let a boil stay untouched, due to its sensitivity, the church did not want to address the issue of racial injustice due to the uproar and it would cause in its communities.

Dr. King uses figurative language to compare the pus-flowing ugliness of a popped boil to the violence and disorder that must arise from facing the problem of race relations head on. In doing so, he both addresses the toxicity and ugliness of racism in society, and also the need to go through the painful experience of bringing it to light.

  this riddles' answer is library.

  the "leaves" are a reference to the books' pages that the library contains; the branches are a network of libraries that connect multiple libraries' collections, resources, and items in a system of a common database, integrating them; the branches' organization are a useful management tool for coordinating the multiple collections many libraries have.

both are bitter over their mistake
