Letter from Biringham

I actually really enjoyed reading this piece. He wrote this letter with such intelligence and calm that it would make it almost impossible to not agree with him. I loved how he never did seem to get angry or talk down to those he was writing to. One statement he made that got me was in the part when he was speaking about being told to wait that some day action would happen. "We must come to see with the distinguished jurist of yesterday that "justice too long delayed is justice denied."" I feel that even though we have come so far in this country that there are still moments today that people have that exact feeling. It was great to hear an argument that had a strong base to it that wasn't just calling the other side names. He wasn't afraid to make his point for something he was strongly willing to stand behind.
