King began the letter by responding to the criticism that he and his fellow activists were "outsiders" causing trouble in the streets of Birmingham. King also wanted to call out the white clergy for not supporting the Black cause in America. He also wanted to appeal to humanity: the dream that equality would one day become the American experience.
