62 years ago today in Birmingham, Alabama, a bomb planted by the Ku Klux Klan killed four little girls at the 16th Street Baptist Church. Denise McNair, age 11, Addie Mae Collins, age 14, Carole Robertson, age 14, and Cynthia Wesley, age 14, were murdered in the name of white supremacy, hate, racism, and extremism. Today, the cycles of violence against our community persist, despite the progress made since the tragic death of these four children.
