7. This letter is widely regarded as a classic work of American literature and a powerful defense of nonviolent protest. Write whether or not you feel the speech deserves this designation/honor? Explain your answer.

Without having the lines here, I can only help you to identify or answer the question.  When reading, you are looking for any new information that you have gained about the characters after having just read the passage.  Did you learn about their personalities, or did you learn something new about their lives?  Did you learn about their likes or dislikes?  In the last two sentences, do they help you to understand what mood Rolf's in or what he is feeling about what has happened?  Any information like that will be helpful in answering the questions.
