Explanation:

The word "shameful" has a strong negative connotation. It indicates that King is expressing strong disapproval and anger (outrage) at the situation of the Negro being "languished" and an "exile". "Indecision" is about not being able to make a choice, which is not relevant here. "Hopefulness" is positive and the word "shameful" is negative. "Spirituality" is about a connection to the divine or a spiritual realm, which is not related to the meaning of "shameful" in this context.

Answer:

outrage
