This year marks the 57th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “Letter From a Birmingham Jail,” an important piece of persuasive advocacy he wrote about the need for nonviolent responses to racism while incarcerated at the city jail. In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Texas Lawyer is pleased to run a piece by Michael Maslanka on what we can learn from King’s letter. Maslanka’s article was originally published by Texas Lawyer on Feb. 14, 2011. — Kenneth Artz, Texas Bureau Chief, Texas Lawyer
