I found the analysis online but I want to remind you to rewrite it properly. If you do not want to be caught, check what the writers from Prime Writing can do for you.
In the “Letter from Birmingham Jail” by Martin Luther King Jr., he writes to defend himself against the clergymen’s accusations in which he explains his motive on his civil rights demonstrations and strives to justify the desperate needs for nonviolent action in the Civil Rights Movement. His primary audience throughout the letter was to the religious leaders as he was responding to an open letter for criticism, whereas the secondary audiences are white moderates and the religious population. Dr King’s letter addresses that the white attitudes towards African Americans and the Civil Rights Movements in the 1960s were hostile as they were unable to accept the movement, especially in the South. Throughout the letter, he uses various literary and rhetorical devices to justify his actions and show why they aren't illegal.
Another: "The opposing sides lit up the air with speeding bullets as... ( whatever was happening)" Try to describe the scenes/actions and use figurative language.
