The tragic bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church on September 15, 1963, which killed four young girls, serves as a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement. This attack, emblematic of the racial violence in Birmingham, galvanized the African American community and drew national attention to the struggle for desegregation and equal rights. The book provides historical context to this event, illustrating how it ultimately contributed to the passage of the 1964 civil rights legislation. It has received several honors for its impactful narrative.
