Explanation:

Sub - question 2

Dr. King said people couldn't wait any longer for change because African - Americans were facing severe racial discrimination, segregation, and lack of basic civil rights. They were denied equal access to education, employment, housing, and were subjected to violence and humiliation. The existing system of racial injustice was causing great suffering, and the patience of the oppressed community had run out as they yearned for immediate equality and justice.

One part of Dr. King's dream was that people would be judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. He dreamed of a racially integrated society where African - Americans and white people, along with people of all races, could live together in harmony, have equal opportunities, and enjoy the same rights and privileges.

Dr. King believed peaceful protest was important because he saw that violent methods would lead to more division, hatred, and destruction. Peaceful protest, like non - violent civil disobedience, could win the moral high ground, gain the support of the broader society (including white allies), and show the injustice of the oppressors' actions more clearly. It also aligned with his Christian beliefs of love and non - violence, and he thought it was the most effective way to bring about lasting social change without causing more harm.

Answer:

People couldn't wait any longer for change because African - Americans were suffering from severe racial discrimination, segregation, and lack of civil rights, and their patience for justice had run out.
