Martin Luther King Jr. and others decided to delay their actions in Birmingham to allow for careful planning and to build a stronger coalition among civil rights groups. They sought to create a strategic campaign that would maximize impact and garner public support, particularly from white moderates. Additionally, they aimed to demonstrate the urgency of the Civil Rights Movement and the injustices faced by African Americans, ensuring that their actions would resonate deeply with the broader public. This delay was part of a calculated effort to ensure that their protests would be effective and lead to meaningful change.
