Four African-American, young girls were killed in the bombing. There were actually five young girls in the basement of the church, but one of the girls survived and was blinded permanently.

Another big impact this has on civil rights is the church was the facial point of racial tension so, it gave blacks many reasons to fight against racism and now today racism has not gone away completely, but is definitely not as bad. ]]> 2019-05-02 17:57:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kailey_saltz/qts1y5b0bbhg/wish/356335499 23nevaeh_foster https://padlet.com/kailey_saltz/qts1y5b0bbhg/wish/356336471 In 1963 JFK was assassnatied on November 22 1963 at 12:30 while riding in a motorcade. president john F.
