Detailed explanation-1: -This momentous decree is a great beacon light of hope it millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity. But 100 years later the Negro still is not free.”
Detailed explanation-2: -Pathos/Appeal to Emotion “In deep disappointment I have wept over the laxity of the church. But be assured that my tears have been tears of love. There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love.
Detailed explanation-3: -It’s not “withering in justice” but “withering injustice". It’s a adjective here describing the “humiliating” injustice they experienced. From the verb “to wither", meaning to shrivel; fade; decay like a dying flower, or figuratively to “affect harmfully” or “tear down".
