"An Eye for an Eye" by Martin Luther King, Jr. Violence as a way of achieving racial justice is both impractical and immoral. It is impractical because it is a descending spiral ending in destruction for all. The old law of an eye for an eye leaves everybody blind. It is immoral because it seeks to humiliate the opponent rather than win his understanding; it seeks to annihilate rather than to convert. Violence is immoral because it thrives on hatred rather than love. It destroys a community and makes brotherhood impossible. It leaves society in monologue rather than dialogue. Violence ends by defeating itself. It creates bitterness in the survivors and brutality in the destroyers. 1. In the sentences below from the last paragraph, how does the connotation of the words reflect Martin Luther King’s attitude about violence? “Violence ends by defeating itself. It creates bitterness in the survivors and brutality in the destroyers.”
