Overview
On September 15, 1963, a bomb destroyed a black church in Birmingham, Alabama, killing four young girls who were there for Sunday school. It was a crime that shocked the nation--and a defining moment in the history of the civil-rights movement. Spike Lee re-examines the full story of the bombing, including a revealing interview with former Alabama Governor George Wallace.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A rigorous, unflinching examination of a watershed atrocity in American history that treats the lives of the murdered girls with dignity while confronting the systemic racism and violence that enabled it. Spike Lee's documentary is both a memorial and an indictment.
