摘要

Just after 2 A.M. on sunday, Sept. 15, 1963, A Blue-and-white 1957 Chevy carrying four white men pulled up next to the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Ala. Two of the men got out, and one tucked a box behind an exterior staircase, against the church's outer wall. A black passerby noticed the men and their distinctive car—the Chevy had a long "whip" radio antenna. Eight hours later, at 10:19 a.m., five young women were straightening their clothes in the ladies' lounge just before services when a huge explosion tore through the church. One of the girls, 14-year-old Cynthia Wesley, was decapitated; three others—11-year-old Denise McNair and 14-year-olds Carole Robertson and Ad-die Mae Collins—also died instantly. Addie Mae's younger sister, Sarah, sur-vived, but lost an eye; parents and parishioners pulled her from the rubble, the smell of dynamite fresh in the air. Though no other act of terror during the move-ment would claim as many lives, the case was never completely cracked.
