In those paragraphs King says he is gravely disappointed with two groups:
- the white moderate — “I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling‑block . . . is the white moderate, who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice…”
- the white church and its leadership — he says he had expected the church to be a strong ally but was disappointed that many clergy were “more cautious than courageous” and unwilling to support direct action.
(Paragraph numbering can vary by edition, but this passage appears in the middle of the letter.)
