Which of the following statements are true of both Thoreau's and Martin Luther King , Jr.'s attitudes toward imprisonment? Both thought that they had committed a moral and necessary act of defiance. Both believed that their imprisonm ent actually showed high respect for the law. Both reflected that they lost their inner freedom while imprisoned. Both expressed outrage at their imprisonment.

Answer 1

The statement "Both believed that their imprisonment actually showed high respect for the law" is not true for either Thoreau or Martin Luther King, Jr. Thoreau, in his essay "Civil Disobedience," argued that unjust laws should be peacefully disobeyed, and he did not see his imprisonment as a sign of respect for the law. Similarly, Martin Luther King, Jr. advocated for civil disobedience as a means of challenging unjust laws during the civil rights movement. Therefore, the correct statements are:1. Both thought that they had committed a moral and necessary act of defiance.2. Both reflected that they lost their inner freedom while imprisoned.3. Both expressed outrage at their imprisonment.
