The Birmingham Campaign was launched in 1963. Martin Luther King
Jr. and other activists were soon jailed, but it was the
participation of the children that advanced the momentum of the
Birmingham movement. They marched alongside the adults and were
taken to jail with them as well. Because the 16th St. Baptist
Church was close to the downtown area, it was an ideal location
to hold rallies and meetings. On Sunday morning, Sept. 15,
1963, dynamite planted by the Ku Klux Klan, exploded in the
building. Under the fallen debris, the bodies of four girls
were found. Denise McNair, Addie Mae Collins, Carole Robertson
and Cynthia Wesley died because of the color of their skin.
Features archival film footage, home photographs, comments by
surviving family members, and interviews with local and
national figures of the time.
