Answer:

Twain's metaphor correctly depicts the truths of American society during the Gilded Age.

Explanation:

Though industries were there prior to the Civil War, agriculture had constituted the largest portion of the American economy. This has changed following the war. America prospered, with exponential growth in manufacturing and technology. But the Gilded Age had a more ugly side as it was a time when greedy, corrupt businessmen, politicians, and bankers who dominated the society and resembled the glory however underneath them were the working class who experienced traumatic conditions.

The letters by Dr. Martin Luther King Junior addressed people and inspired people by mentioning the "legal" acts done by Adolf Hitler in Germany and "illegal" freedom movement in Hungary. He wanted the audience to understand and differentiate between justice and injustice caused by the governments themselves, and he inspired people to take action. He called the step as "urgent" and motivated people to stop segregation and unite and take action against it. He used simplified language to sow the actual intentions of the non-violent measures taken by the white people, which were causing injustice to the non-whites.
