Answer:

Pathos

Step-by-step explanation:

Pathos refers to a rhetorical appeal that tries to persuade the reader by appealing to his emotions. This is most likely the type of appeal that Dr. King is using in this excerpt. Pathos is one of three main modes of persuasion, the other ones being logos (an appeal to logic) and ethos (an appeal to credibility).
