from he power of nonviolence,\ a speech by martin luther king, jr., june 04, 1957
another thing that we had to get over was the fact that the nonviolent resister does not seek to humiliate or defeat the opponent but to win his friendship and understanding. this was always a cry that we had to set before people that our aim is not to defeat the white community, not to humiliate the white community, but to win the friendship of all of the persons who had perpetrated this system in the past. the end of violence or the aftermath of violence is bitterness. the aftermath of nonviolence is reconciliation and the creation of a beloved community. a boycott is never an end within itself. it is merely a means to awaken a sense of shame within the oppressor but the end is reconciliation, the end is redemption.
another basic thing we had to get over is that nonviolent resistance is also an internal matter. it not only avoids external violence or external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. and so at the center of our movement stood the philosophy of love. the attitude that the only way to ultimately change humanity and make the society that we all long for is to keep love at the center of our lives. how people used to ask me from the beginning
which of the following reasons does king give to support his claim?
winning is important regardless of the cost.
humiliating white people is the ultimate goal
nonviolence causes problems for protesters.
violence creates bitterness.

# Brief Explanations:
To solve this, we analyze each option against the passage:

- "Humiliating white people is the ultimate goal": The passage states the aim is not to humiliate the white community. Eliminate.
- "Nonviolence causes problems for protesters": The passage focuses on nonviolence's positive outcomes (reconciliation) and doesn't say it causes problems for protesters. Eliminate.
- "Violence creates bitterness": The passage says "The end of violence or the aftermath of violence is bitterness", which matches this option.
