That were to tie him up to the mast so he could hear the sirens but not be able to do what they bid him to do.
<em>After the City Council Vote ends, we leave, and we walk out of the courtroom. We go back to the little taco truck and yet again we start cooking. We were lucky to have the judge not take the taco truck away from us and now we are able to keep on cooking and make extra money. Every once in a while we will get a customer but, it's not quite just like the last time. Now it feels like it's a privilege to be able to cook and make the tacos, instead of something that we just do. Some of the customers are nice and tip extra, but even that feels even better than the last time. The days are calm and the money we earn seems to become an even larger amount per day. One day we have someone paying five dollars for a simple taco and then the next day we have someone recommending that we increase the prices because they think the tacos are good. Things really turned out well for us after the Voting.</em>
Dr King while making use of an allusion refers to the Reverend Rein hold Niebuhr who was a theologian from America.
<u>Explanation</u>:
He was also a professor and an intellectual who was leading during the time of the twentieth century. He used it to strengthen his argument by saying that Niebuhr had written many influential books and those books spoke about the morality of the individual in comparison to the immorality of the society. The writing about the serenity prayers are also his contributions. This was used by king to strengthen his evidence.
