In his 1963 'Letter from Birmingham Jail,' Martin Luther King Jr. wrote:
'Nonviolent direct action seeks to create such a crisis and foster such a tension that a community which has constantly refused to negotiate is forced to confront the issue. It seeks so to dramatize the issue that it can no longer be ignored.'
