According to MLK, how can we tell the difference between just and unjust laws?

1. “An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law. Any law that uplifts human personality is just. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust.”

In your view, is this an important distinction (between just and unjust laws), do you think it makes a difference in the way someone (as an individual, or our society as a whole) lives their lives? Can it affect our politics?

2. This is a very important distinction between just and unjust laws, unjust laws is individually how people want to move for example segregation being a unjust law which doesn’t uplift human personality and is not natural law,

The way one lives their life does affect society as a whole if it’s injustice to other people 

Based on our discussion of Question 1, give an example each, of an unjust and just law, in the US today. Explain what makes it unjust or just (using MLK’s definition of those two types of laws).

3. A law today in the Us could be the protection of gender identity like the laws to protect LGBTQ+ or even the rights women have equal to men that prohibited discrimination compared to the earlier days. Like Martin Luther king jr said it upholds fairness and equality 

While a unlaw would be something that violates principals of fairness which would probably be maybe the difference in minorities and low income communities or even the things we learned about capitalism
