Kind of. It’s …
Kind of. It’s definitely not nearly as bad as it was. People still hold prejudices against blacks, but these are hardly acted on. It’s more of a personal war, not so physical. But no, we are not yet ONE, I’m sorry to say.
Hey I am not …
Hey I am not American so I need to ask, is there still white/black hatered of each other as it was in the civil righst era or are all you guys in the South now mixing freely and living as ONE? Thanks for the replies

It really saddens me that innocent young girls were killed for no reason (like there would be a reason to do what happened). I know that those who killed and tortured the people during this era are going to have to answer to GOD someday if they aren’t already burning in hell.

I just noticed that the three girls age 14 where all born in April 18,24,and30. Six days apart from each other.

In that era, the worst crime committed was people choosing to turn a blind eye to the suffering Jim Crow was causing. People tried to justify it by saying they were preserving their heritage and custims from an unwanted “invasion” but all they were doing was preserving a system that had corrupted their very souls, a system that needed to die and should’ve died in 1865.
In the end this tragedy should serve as a reminder where bigotry will always end, and that Justice Delayed is Justice Denied

This song is so moving…I first saw it during Social Studies, when we were learning about the Baptist Church Bombing. I can honestly say that when my teacher told us we were going to listent to a song about it i was not expecting anything very good, I mean which artist in their right mind would write and sing a song about a historical event
Joan Baez is now one of the best singers i have ever heard. I was shaking and had goose bumps by the end… this song brought tears to my eyes… thanks!
