Correct answer: 3.
In "Letter from Birmingham Jail" King says he is "so greatly disappointed with the white church and its leadership" because they have been timid and have failed to take a bold moral stand for civil rights — more "oppressed" by a desire for order and the status quo than committed to justice. Options 1, 2, and 4 are not what he criticizes in the letter.
